Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Amazon by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.
- Amazon never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "https://www.amazon.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_ login-run".
-
The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual Amazon URL.

Dear Amazon Customer,
We recently noticed one or more attempts to log in to your Amazon account
from a foreign IP address.
If you recently accessed your account while traveling, the unusual log in
attempts may have been initiated by you. However, if you did not initiate
the log ins, please visit Amazon as soon as possible to verify your
identity:
https://www.amazon.com/cgi-bin/ webscr?cmd=_login-run
Verify your identity is a security measure that will ensure that you are
the only person with access to the account.
Thanks for your patience as we work together to protect your account.
Sincerely,
Amazon Team
