  • Email asks you to confirm/update/verify your account data at Amazon.com by visiting the given link. You will be taken to a spoof website where your details will be captured for the phishers.


  • Amazon.com never send their users emails requesting personal details in this way.


  • The REAL URL of the spoof website is disguised as "http://www.amazon.com/gp/css/summary/edit. html/?orderID=058-3754722-0752568".


  • The REAL URL of the spoof website looks nothing like the actual Amazon.com URL.

"Your credit card payment for the above transaction could not be completed. "

Regarding Order from electronixdealer@yahoo.com

Greetings from Amazon.com,

Your credit card payment for the above transaction could not be completed.
An issuing bank will often decline an attempt to charge a credit card if the name, expiration date, or ZIP Code you entered at Amazon.com does not exactly match the bank's information.

Valid credit card information must be received within 3 days of purchase, otherwise your order will be void. Please know also that for your account security if a second payment attempt is unsuccessful your order will be canceled at that time.

Once you have confirmed your account information with your issuing bank, please follow the link below to resubmit your payment.

We recommend you select an option to create a new payment method when prompted and enter the complete information for the payment method you wish to use.

We hope that you are able to resolve this issue promptly.

Thank you for choosing Amazon.com.
