(888) 280-4331
This is most definitely a scammer. What helps these scammers is the fact that some people feel obligated to a answer the phone just because they hear it ringing! Those people think a phone is made to ring and when it rings it is suppose to be answered. UNBELIEVABLE! Unless you are at work and being paid to answer a company phone, you are not obligated to answer! REMEMBER THAT!!

When I asked the man where he was working, he said he was in Guatemala City but when I switched to Spanish he said "Because of my work I can't speak in Spanish but I can transfer you to someone who does." The reason I ended the call was because he sounded exactly like the Indian scammers I see / hear on YouTube. He said "amazon" like "am-a-zun." Then when I looked up this number I saw that others believe it's a scammer's number.

Amazon Impostor Scam: Someone left 4 texts with many links. They claimed there were many sign-in attempts from Illinois. It was so obviously a Phishing scheme. Seeing so many reports, it appears they are not very successful at their job of Phishing to catch a fool. I bet they are ***gry. Someone, please, just give them a fish instead, followed by some good old-fashioned fishing lessons. Or maybe just give them a big pile of ****!

Caller said that they were calling to notify us that there was 'suspicious activity' at our Amazon Prime account. We all checked our various Amazon accounts, nothing there. Clearly a scam to get us to divulge credit card info or the like..something about $700.00 worth of 'suspicious" iphone charges. So, given I am report #17, when ate the feds going to take these !^%#&^%!-ers down?

(888) 280-4331
Said Amazon was calling and wanted me to call back if I had not placed an order in a certain amount. I called Amazon Customer Service, not the number the caller provided, and they confirmed that no order had been placed on my account. I think the caller wanted me to call the number they left to ask for information, fishing.

Said I called this number but my call history shows no such call Would not provide any identification information.
