Such scams are particularly prevalent at Chirstmas. There are also fake Amazon emails fdoing the rounds. I got one myself the other day with a fake order number on it. As I had just bought something from Amazon I checked the number on the fake email against the order confirmation I'd received from Amazon and they were different, so it was nothing to do with my order. I therefore deleted the fake email.

Yes I've also had about four fake emails from Amazon in the past two day, some sad people need to get themselves a life!

I get these all the time-as soon as they ask for an account number or any other details, it's bad news.

Yep, I just flow these to my spam emails. Some of them are really bizzare and a little out there and just plain disgusting!!
