Spam claiming to be Amazon
September 27, 2023
I couldn't find a number for Amazon on the App so I looked it up online and found 1-888-280-4331. Received a automated answer asking some question and they only gave me one option to answer "Yes". No press 1 for this or 2 for that just "Yes". I didn't answer and waited to see if someone would pickup and nobody did. I started pressing buttons and still got the same question. "SCAM" for sure.

A person with an international accent called stating someone charged 300.00 to me Amazon account. Said the call was from the fraud department. Next asck if I had purchased a computer and if I live in Texas. Next ask me to turn on computer and go to the search bar. I said this is a scam and I was going to call Amazon. Said this is not a scam and I would not be able to get in touch with Amazon. I said I wanted their name, they said if I don't work with them I would be charge more on my account. I said I am calling Amazon, I called Amazon, reported the call and my account is fine -- no fraud.

Fake Amazon scam by madarchod criminals phoning from India This is a fake Amazon scam by criminals robo-dialing from India. The scam begins with a pre-recorded robotic message speaking English, often with bad grammar, that is generated using text-to-speech translation software to disguise the origin of this India scam who pretends to be from Amazon. The recording tells you either that your Amazon account has been charged hundreds of dollars in a transaction, you will be charged for the purchase of an iPhone being delivered to some fake address, your Amazon Prime account will be auto-renewed from your bank account or credit card, your Amazon account has been blocked due to a suspicious charge, your account has been suspended for security purposes, or a $200 Amazon gift card purchase has been put on hold as your account seems to be compromised. All of these fake Amazon recordings are scam lures to get you to respond to the scam and then you talk to an Indian scammer who tells you that he needs your Amazon user name and password and credit card number or bank account/routing number "for verification purposes" so they can make corrections to your account. Amazon never phones customers like this, unless you click on their website to have them phone you, and Amazon certainly never asks for your credit card or bank account number in any way! There are hundreds of these India scams using pre-recorded messages saying that either there was suspicious activity on your Amazon or Apple account, or some fake account will be auto-renewed and auto-debited with a charge, or that you are due a refund because either a fake company is closing down or a fake erroneous charge was made to your account, and these scammers try to steal your credit card or bank account/routing numbers, or ask for your login user passwords. All real subscription plans or refund announcements will email you directly and they do not robo-dial you with a fake message. Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple will never phone you with any announcements. I toyed with this scammer for more than 30 minutes, feeding him completely fake information, before the toilet scum yelled profanities at me while I could not stop laughing. About 80% of North America scam calls come from India and 15% come from the Philippines. India scammers run hundreds of fraud, extortion, and money laundering scams every day such as posing as a fake pharmacy, fake Social Security officer saying your benefits are suspended, IRS officer collecting on fake unpaid back taxes, debt collector threatening you for fake unpaid bills, fake bank/financial/FedEx/UPS/DHL scams, pretending to offer fake health insurance, car warranty, student loan forgiveness, credit card and debt consolidation services, posing as Amazon to falsely say an unauthorized purchase was made to your credit card or your Prime membership was auto-debited from your bank, posing as Microsoft/Dell/HP/Apple to say your account has been hacked or they detected a virus on your computer, fake "we are refunding your money" or "your account has been auto-debited" scams, fake Google/Alexa listing and work-from-home scams, posing as an electric utility, Verizon, AT&T, or Comcast to say your service is suspended, fake solar panel and home purchase offers, fake fundraisers asking for donations, fake phone surveys, and the scammers try to steal your credit card, bank account/routing number, Social Security number, and personal information. A India call center may rotate through a fake Social Security, subscription auto-renewal, pharmacy, and credit card offer scam within one week. Philippines scammers focus more on Medicare and SSN/identity theft. Scammers use disposable VoIP phone numbers (e.g. MagicJack devices) or they spoof fake names and numbers on Caller ID. Anyone can use telecom software to phone with a fake CID name and number. Scammers spoof thousands of fake 8xx toll-free numbers. CID is useless with scam calls unless the scam asks you to phone them back. CID area codes are never the origin of scam calls since scams use spoofed CID numbers from across the US and Canada, numbers belonging to unsuspecting people, invalid area codes, and fake foreign country CID numbers; e.g. fake women crying "help me" emergency scams often spoof Mexico and Middle East CID numbers. Scammers often spoof the actual phone numbers of businesses such as Apple, Verizon, and banks to trick you into thinking the call is valid. How can you avoid being scammed by phone calls? NEVER trust any unsolicited caller who sells something (most unsolicited calls are scams so your odds of saving money are very poor); asks for your Social Security number; offers a free gift or reward; threatens you with arrest/lawsuit or says you need to reply back soon (pressure tactic); asks you to access a website, download a file, wire transfer money or buy prepaid debit/gift cards; claims suspicious activity on your account; says your subscription is being refunded or auto-renewed/auto-debited; and all pre-recorded messages. Recordings are far more likely to be malicious scams and not just telemarketer spam. All unsolicited callers with foreign accents, usually Indian or Filipino, are mostly scams. Filipino scammers tend to speak better English than Indian scammers. Filipinos speak English with a subtle accent having a slight trill. Scams often say that you inquired about a job, insurance, social security benefits, or that you previously contacted them or visited their website. A common India phone scam uses a fake Amazon recording about a purchase of an iPhone, but Amazon never robo-dials and Amazon account updates are emailed. Many banks use automated fraud alert calls to confirm a suspicious purchase, but always verify the number that the recording tells you to phone or just call the number printed on your credit card. Some scams ask for your credit card for purchase of their fake product or service. The scammer calls you back one day later to say their credit card machine is broken, so you must wire transfer the payment to them. After you have wired the money to them, they still overcharge your credit card after they change phone numbers, so they rob you twice before disappearing. Wire transfers and prepaid debit cards laundered through foreign bank accounts are untraceable. Scammers try to gain your trust by saying your name when they call, but their autodialer automatically displays your name or says your name in a recording when your number is dialed using phone databases that list millions of names and addresses. Scammers often call using an initial recording speaking English, Spanish, or Chinese that is easily generated using text-to-speech translation software to disguise the origin of their India phone room. Some speech synthesis software sound robotic, but others sound natural. To hide their foreign accents, some India scammers use non-Indians in their phone room. Scammers often use interactive voice response (IVR) robotic software that combines voice recognition with artificial intelligence, speaks English with American voices, and responds based on your replies. IVR calls begin with: "Hi, this is fake_name, I am a fake_job_title on a recorded line, can you hear me okay?"; or "Hi, this is fake_name, how are you doing today?"; or "Hello? (pause) Are you there?"; or "Hi, may I speak to your_name?" IVR quickly asks you a short question to elicit a yes/no reply so it hangs up if it encounters voicemail. IVR robots understand basic replies and yes/no answers. To test for IVR, ask "How is the weather over there?" since IVR cannot answer complex questions and it keeps talking if you interrupt it in mid-sentence. IVR usually transfers you to the scammer, but some scams entirely use IVR with the robot asking for your credit card or SSN. A common myth is IVR calls record you saying "yes" so scammers can authorize purchases just using your "yes" voice, but scammers need more than just a recorded "yes" from you - credit cards and SSN. Phone/email scams share two common traits: the CID name/number and the "From:" header on emails are easily faked, and the intent of scam calls is malicious just as file attachments and website links on scam emails are harmful. Scams snowball for many victims. If your personal/financial data are stolen, either by being scammed, visiting a malicious website, or by a previous data breach of a business server that stores your data, then your data gets sold by scammers on the dark web who will see you as fresh meat and prey on you even more. This is why some receive 40+ scam calls everyday while others get 0 to 2 calls per day. If you provide your personal information to a phone scammer, lured by fake 80%-discounted drugs or scared by fake IRS officers, you receive even more phone scams and identity theft can take years to repair. Most unsolicited calls are scams, often with an Indian accent. No other country is infested with pandemics of phone room sweatshops filled with criminals who belong to the lowest India caste and many are thieves and rapists who were serving jail time but released early due to prison overcrowding. Scammers often shout profanities at you. Just laugh at their abusive language. Google "Hindi swear words" and memorize some favorites, e.g. call him "Rundi Ka Bacha" (son of whore) or call her "Rundi Ki Bachi" (daughter of whore). Scammers ignore the National Do-Not-Call Registry; asking scammers to stop calling is useless. You do these scammers a favor by quickly hanging up. But you ruin their scams when you slowly drag them along on the phone call, give them fake personal and credit card data (16 random digits starting with 4 for Visa, 5 for MasterCard), ask them to speak louder and repeat what they said to waste their time and energy.

Finally, I just decided to play with him for awhile and talked to him by speaking German using a faux Indian accent (picture the Apu character from "The Simpsons" speaking German) lol.

Spoke with a thick accent, could barely understand him. I read a few days ago that India is now the new COVID-19 epicenter for Coronavirus infections, so their imploding economy is triggering huge tsunamis of phone scammers working in germy phone rooms trying to steal your money! That explains why I am noticing far more Indians phoning me with every kind of scam right now! Every week, they pretend to be just about everyone except my father lol.

Tired of all these India scammers? Me too! I've joined thousands of Americans in scamming the scammers! Just play along with their scam to use up their time. Pretend to be interested in their fake offers and threats. But never give them any real personal information. When asked, I always give my name as "Edith Pisaff". Bonus points to you if you can guess where that name comes from ;-) Some call it scambaiting. Whenever scammers call you, feign ignorance about their scam and play along. I've scammed a lot of scammers by toying with them for more than one hour while cooking or cleaning house. My ScamTheScammer record is keeping one Indian scammer on the phone for more than two hours lmao. He was pretending to be an IRS Officer ("John Wilson" with a thick Indian accent, yeah right!) and demanded that I drive to the bank and wire money to him. I pretended that I was driving to the bank, but he said that he could not hear my car. So I actually drove to the grocery store to do my weekly shopping while still keeping him on the phone lol.

Got a call today from "Amazon" stating I was getting a charge for an IPhone and they wanted to confirm. When I pressed #1 to dispute the charge a very angry Indian accent male told me to give him my cc and pin info. So I asked why did he need that info if i'm not buying a phone he said, "shut the fuck up and give me the information"... Yeah I don't think that was Amazon.
August 15, 2020
Fake Amazon fraud alert recording. When I press 1, some Indian dude with a very thick accent and terrible English says he is with Amazon's Fraud Department lol. I could barely understand him, but just to play along, I had to ask him to repeat nearly sentence to understand his scripted scam presentation. At one point, he yells at me, "Are you playing with me?" I hone my acting skills and sound surprised and reply, "No, I am very concerned about my Amazon account" and the dude continues trying to get my credit card number. About 20 minutes later, I could hear another guy cutting into our pleasant conversation and telling my scammer something in Hindi. The second dude was probably his supervisor who was listening into our call and telling his pathetic employee to wrap things up. So the scammer yells "you motherf***er!" at me and hangs up. lol

Fake Amazon scam by madarchod criminals phoning from India This is a fake Amazon scam by criminals robo-dialing from India. The scam begins with a pre-recorded robotic person speaking English, often with bad grammar, that is generated using text-to-speech translation software to disguise the origin of this India scam who pretends to be from Amazon. The recording tells you either that your Amazon Prime account will be auto-renewed from your bank account or credit card, you will be charged for the purchase of an iPhone being delivered to some fake address, your Amazon account has been blocked due to a suspicious charge, your account has been suspended for security purposes, or a $200 Amazon gift card purchase has been put on hold as your account seems to be compromised. All of these fake Amazon recordings are a scam lure to get you to respond to the scam and then you talk to an Indian scammer who tells you that he needs your Amazon user name and password and credit card number or bank account/routing number "for verification purposes" so they can make corrections to your account. Amazon never phones customers like this, unless you click on their website to have them phone you, and Amazon certainly never asks for your credit card or bank account number in any way! There are hundreds of these India scams using pre-recorded messages saying that either there was suspicious activity on your Amazon or Apple account, or some fake account will be auto-renewed and auto-debited with a charge, or that you are due a refund because either a fake company is closing down or a fake erroneous charge was made to your account, and these scammers try to steal your credit card or bank account/routing numbers, or ask for your login user passwords. All real subscription plans or refund announcements will email you directly and they do not robo-dial you with a fake message. Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple will never phone you with any announcements. I toyed with this scammer for more than 30 minutes, feeding him completely fake information, before the toilet scum yelled profanities at me while I could not stop laughing. More than 95% of North America phone scams come from India scammers who operate hundreds of fraud, extortion, and money laundering scams every day such as posing as a fake pharmacy; fake Social Security officer saying your benefits are suspended; IRS officer collecting on fake unpaid back taxes; bill collector threatening you for fake unpaid debts; fake bank, financial, or Fedex/UPS/DHL scams; pretending to offer fake health insurance, car warranty, student loan forgiveness, credit card and debt consolidation services; posing as Amazon to falsely say an unauthorized purchase was made to your credit card or your Prime membership was auto-debited from your bank; posing as Microsoft/Dell/HP/Apple and saying your account has been hacked or they detected a problem or virus on your computer; fake "we are refunding your money" or "your account has been auto-debited" scams; fake Google/Alexa listing and work-from-home scams; posing as an electric utility or Verizon/AT&T/Comcast to say your service is suspended; fake solar panel and home purchase offers; fake fundraisers asking for donations; fake political and lifestyle phone surveys; and the scammers try to steal your credit card, bank account/routing number, Social Security number, and personal information. One India call center may cycle through a fake Social Security, computer subscription auto-renewal, pharmacy, and credit card offer scam during one week. People often hear different scams from the same spoofed Caller ID number. Scammers often use disposable VoIP phone numbers (MagicJack devices) or they spoof fake Caller ID phone numbers. Anyone can use telecom software or a third-party service to phone using fake CID names/numbers. India scammers often spoof fake "8xx-" toll-free numbers. The CID name/number is useless with scam calls unless the scam asks you to phone them back and the CID area code is almost never the origin of the call. You waste your time researching the CID number since scams use spoofed CID numbers from across the U.S. and Canada, totally invalid area codes, and also fake foreign country CID numbers; e.g. fake women crying "help me" emergency scams from India often spoof Mexico and Middle East CID numbers. India scammers also spoof the actual phone numbers of businesses such as Apple, Verizon, and U.S. banks to trick you into thinking that a call is valid. How can you avoid being scammed by phone calls? NEVER trust any unsolicited caller who sells something (most unsolicited calls are scams so your odds of saving money are very poor); offers of a free gift; legal or arrest phone threats or a caller/recording who says you need to reply back soon (pressure tactic); callers who ask you to access a website, download a file, wire transfer money or buy gift cards; claims of suspicious activity on an account; subscriptions being refunded or auto-renewed/auto-debited; and all pre-recorded messages. Recorded messages are far more likely to be malicious scams, and not just telemarketing spam. A common India scam phones you with a fake Amazon recording about a purchase of an iPhone, but Amazon never robo-dials and Amazon account updates are communicated in emails. Many banks use automated fraud alert phone calls to confirm a suspicious purchase, but always verify the number that the message tells you to phone or just call the number printed on your credit card. Any unsolicited caller with a foreign accent, usually Indian, should immediately be treated as a scam. Many scams tell a lie that you recently inquired about a job, insurance, social security benefits, doctor appointment, or that you recently contacted them or visited their website. Scammers try to gain your trust by saying your name when they call, but the autodialer is automatically displaying your name to the scammer or saying your name in a recording when your number is dialed using phone databases that have millions of names and addresses. India scammers often phone with an initial pre-recorded message speaking English, Spanish, or Chinese that is easily generated using text-to-speech translation software to disguise the origin of their India phone room, but then you speak to the scammer when you press 1 or call them back. Some speech synthesis software sound robotic, but others sound natural. To hide their foreign accents, some India scammers use non-Indians in their phone room. India scammers use interactive voice response (IVR) robotic software that combines voice recognition with artificial intelligence, speaks English with American voices, and responds based on your replies. IVR calls begin with: "Hi, this is fake_name, I am a fake_job_title on a recorded line, can you hear me okay?"; or "Hi, this is fake_name, how are you doing today?"; or "Hello? (pause) Are you there?"; or "Hi, may I speak to your_name?" IVR quickly asks you a short question to elicit a yes/no reply so it hangs up if it encounters voicemail. IVR robots understand basic replies, yes/no/what answers, and basic questions. To test for IVR, ask "How is the weather over there?" since IVR cannot answer complex questions. IVR robots keep talking if you interrupt them in mid-sentence. IVR usually transfers you to the scammer, but some scams entirely use IVR with the robot asking for your credit card or SSN. A common myth is that IVR calls record you saying "yes" so scammers can authorize purchases just using your "yes" voice, but scammers need more information than just a simple recorded "yes" from you - credit cards and SSN. Phone/email scams share two common traits: 1) The Caller ID name/number and the "From:" header on emails are easily faked; and 2) The intent of scam calls is malicious just as file attachments and website links on scam emails are harmful. Scams snowball for many victims. If your personal/financial data are stolen, either by being scammed, visiting a malicious website, or by a previous data breach of a business server that stores your data, then your data gets sold by scammers on the dark web who then see you as fresh meat and prey on you even more. This is why some receive 40+ scam calls everyday while others get 0 to 2 calls per day. If you provide your personal and financial data to a phone scammer, lured by fake 80%-discounted drugs or scared by fake IRS officers, you receive far more phone scams and identity theft can take years to repair. Most unsolicited calls are scams, often with an Indian accent. No other country is infested with pandemics of phone room sweatshops filled with criminals who belong to the lowest India caste and many are thieves and rapists who were serving jail time but released early due to prison overcrowding. India scammers shout profanities at you. Just laugh at their abusive language. Google "Hindi swear words" and memorize some favorites, e.g. call him "Rundi Ka Bacha" (son of whore) or call her "Rundi Ki Bachi" (daughter of whore). Scammers ignore the National Do-Not-Call Registry and asking scammers to stop calling is useless. You do these scammers a favor by quickly hanging up. But you ruin their scams when you slowly drag them along on the phone call, always give them fake personal and credit card data (16 random digits starting with 4 for Visa, 5 for MasterCard), ask them to speak louder and repeat what they said to waste their time and energy.

Amazon 700 dollar order cell phone
June 13, 2020
When the person called, I knew it didn't sound right, because I don't like iPhones and I didnt/don't order from Amazon. When they ask me to go on with my computer...that red flag said STOP...I told them to call back tomorrow, then I started my detective work. Prove it was a scam.
June 13, 2020
Automated voice stating an iPhone 6 (specifically a 6)on my account. Press one to cancel order or speak to representative. Pressing 1 resulted in repeat of message. Pressing 1 again resulted in dead line. I'm guessing the idea is to get you to call back and give the a bunch of info, but since the person who posted immediately before me here experienced a nearly identical call I am going to ignore it.

(888) 280-4331 is a Scam Call Alternately: +18882804331 Reported Name: Amazon Prime Scam Reported Category: Scam
April 22, 2020
Today, 04-17-2020 at 12:30 PM, I received a scam robocall purportedly from 888-280-4331. Due to high volume of robocalls that I receive I no longer answer my telephone. I let all calls go to voice mail. Moments after the call, I checked voice mail. Robocaller indicated that "64 gigabytes had been ordered using my Amazon account and that I should press #1 to speak with customer service to verify order." This is a scam to acquire personal, financial information. The number the scammer was able to fake is an Amazon line; however, Amazon advised that call was a fraud and that Amazon would not make such a call, even if Amazon were concerned. Amazon would use email. Exercise care if called by someone using the number.

Someone claiming to be from Amazon Customer Service (when answered the automated caller started in the middle of the spiel) saying someone used my account to buy a $700 IPhone. If I'd like to speak to a representative, press 1. I did and nothing was on the line so I hung up.
