The "arnazon" order emailFAKE SENDER
A real scam people fell for this year, next to the real thing. The numbers mark the three things to check: hover or tap one to see what it tells you.
Hello Tom, your parcel is on its way. Anker USB-C charger, £19.99.
Arriving Thursday 15 October.
You can track your parcel in Your Orders.
Hello, thank you for your order. Samsung 65" QLED TV, £849.00, will be sent to: 22 Mill Lane, Leeds.
If you did not place this order, cancel it within 12 hours or it will be shipped and charged to your card.
Always check the sender.
Look closely: "arnazon" uses an r and an n to look like the m in Amazon. Amazon writes from amazon.co.uk, and a look-alike address is made on purpose to fool a quick glance.
shipment-tracking@amazon.co.uk is Amazon's own address.
order-update@arnazon.co.uk spells Amazon with "rn" in place of "m".
Nothing. Track it in your orders if you like.
Click "Cancel order" and sign in to stop a £849 order you didn't make.
A delivery date, nothing more.
An expensive order you never placed, "cancel within 12 hours".
RememberRead the sender's address letter by letter. Better yet, check your orders in the Amazon app, not from the email.
