On a computer, navigate to Amazon.com and on the black banner across the top of screen search for the words; "Hello. Sign in." followed by "Your Account" printed just underneath. Attempt to log in using your email address (or phone for mobile accounts) and password. If you succeed, then immediately navigate to your account settings and, just to be safe, change your password, and you should be all set.
If login fails even though you are positive that you have keyed in the correct information, then it is possible that someone has accessed your account and changed your password so as to lock you out of your own account.
If this happens you must immediately deactivate any credit card that you have registered to the hacked account, or the invader will be able to purchase goods at your expenses.
You should immediately call Amazon and inform them that your account has been hacked. They will probably be able to verify your identity by asking to answer security questions or other information known only to you (and them) given when you originally set up the account.
Identifying Amazon E-mailFrom time to time, you might receive e-mails that look like they come from Amazon.com, but they are, in fact, falsified. Often these e-mails direct you to a Web site that looks similar to the Amazon.com Web site, where you might be asked to provide account information such as your e-mail address and password combination. Unfortunately, these false Web sites can steal your sensitive information; later, this information may be used to commit fraud. Some phishing messages contain potential viruses or malware that can detect passwords or sensitive data. We recommend that you install an anti-virus program and keep it updated at all times. Below are some key points to look for in order to identify these e-mails: 1. Know what Amazon.com won't ask for Amazon.com will never ask you for the following information in an e-mail communication:
Your social security number or tax identification number
Your credit card number, PIN number, or credit card security code (including "updates" to any of the above)
***********'s maiden name
Your Amazon.com password
2. Requests to verify or confirm your account information Amazon.com will not ask you to verify or confirm your Amazon.com account information by clicking on a link from an e-mail. 3. Attachments on suspicious e-mails Amazon.com does not send order confirmations or other unsolicited requests that require you to open attachments, nor do we permit our merchants to do so. We recommend that you do not open any e-mail attachments from suspicious or unknown sources. If you receive a suspicious e-mail allegedly sent from Amazon.com that contains an attachment, we recommend you forward the e-mail to [email protected] (as an attachment if possible) without opening it. Delete the mail after you send it. If you opened an attachment in the e-mail, we recommend running anti-virus or anti-malware software. 4. Grammatical or typographical errors Be on the lookout for poor grammar or typographical errors. Some phishing e-mails are translated from other languages or are sent without being proofread, and as a result, contain bad grammar or typographical errors. 5. Check the return address Is the e-mail from Amazon.com? While phishers often send forged e-mail to make it look like it came from Amazon.com, you can sometimes determine whether or not it's authentic by checking the return address. If the "from" line of the e-mail looks like "[email protected]" or "[email protected]," or contains the name of another Internet service provider, you can be sure it is a fraudulent e-mail. 6. Check the Web site address Genuine Amazon.com web sites are always hosted on the "amazon.com" domain--"http://www.amazon.com/. . . " (or "https://www.amazon.com/. . ."). Sometimes the link included in spoofed e-mails looks like a genuine Amazon.com address. You can check where it actually points to by hovering your mouse over the link--the actual Web site where it points to will be shown in the status bar at the bottom of your browser window or as a pop-up. We never use a web address such as "http://security-amazon.com/. . ." or an IP address (string of numbers) followed by directories such as "http://123.456.789.123/amazon.com/. . . ." Alternately, sometimes the spoofed e-mail is set up such that if you click anywhere on the text you are taken to the fraudulent Web site. Amazon.com will never send an e-mail that does this. If you accidentally click on such an e-mail and go to a spoofed Web site, do not enter any information and just close that browser window. 7. If an e-mail looks suspicious, go directly to the Amazon.com Web site When in doubt, do not click the link included in an e-mail. Just go directly to www.amazon.com and click "Your Account" in the top right menu to view recent purchases, or review your account information. If you cannot access your account, or if you see anything suspicious, let us know right away. 8. Do not "unsubscribe" Never follow any instructions contained in a forged e-mail that claim to provide a method for "unsubscribing." Many spammers use these "unsubscribe" processes to create a list of valid, working e-mail addresses. 9. Protect your account information If you did click through from a spoofed or suspicious e-mail and you entered your Amazon.com account information you should immediately update your Amazon.com password. You can do this through Your Account by choosing the option to "Change your name, e-mail address, or password" found under Account Settings. Even if someone has been able to look at your account, they are still not able to see your full credit card information. However, orders can be sent from your account using your credit card so please contact us immediately if you notice any orders that you do not recognize. However, if you did submit your credit card number to the site linked to from the forged e-mail message, we advise that you take steps to protect your information. You may wish to contact your credit card company, for example, to notify them of this matter. Finally, you should delete that credit card from your Amazon.com account to prevent anyone from improperly regaining access to your account. To do so, click "Edit or delete a credit card" under Payment Settings in Your Account.
