Overview
- Security group Mimikama reports a surge of emails that pose as Amazon and cite a declined €8.99 Prime payment.
- The messages claim Prime perks are paused to push recipients to click a button that opens a fake login or payment page.
- A second ploy copies product‑recall notices and promises a refund through a link that leads to a convincing spoof site.
- Amazon urges customers to check alerts only inside their account pages, such as My Orders or Messages, and to avoid logging in through email links.
- If you entered details, experts advise calling your bank to block the card, changing your Amazon password, turning on two‑factor authentication, and filing a police report.
