Fake phishing email from amazon “Re: [Important] Someone using an unrecognised device attempted to sign in to your account. [#yk7Zc]”

Do not fall for this scam folks, it’s a fake email from hacker trying to hack your amazon account. The email from “[email protected] [email protected]” and subject: “Re: [Important] Someone using an unrecognised device attempted to sign in to your account. [#yk7Zc]”

It read something like this below. The method being use here is scare tactic and phishing, if you clicked on the link you probably on your way being hacked because it will notified the hacker you’re accessing the email and clicked on the link and the hack has begun. The hacker will know right away you’re getting into the hacker website which is 100% replicated from amazon website making you believe it’s from amazon but it’s not, it just a copy exact of what amazon website look like. Any you do on that hacker website are being recorded and the hacker already have your IP after you click and visit the website, and the hacking will continue unless you changed your IP.
