I sell books on Amazon.com. I get phished like this on a weekly basis. They pretend to be Amazon.com with urgent info for me, or they're threatening to cancel my account, or they tell me someone ELSE has been trying to get at my CC number and I need to re-enter it...blah, blah, blah.

While the graphics are spot-on, there are always grammar and spelling errors. *Rolleyes*

It's good to warn people of this though, so, Thanks! :)

Also don't leave your 9 year old daughters alone with their bass player.

i get the same thing regularly from paypal. simple solution for me is to type in the regular paypal url in the address bar, and never use the link provided in the email.

I have gotten similar messages pretending to be amazon.com. Should they be reported to Homeland Security or to the FBI?
