Why?

There are many spam email senders out there trying to cheat you and to gain access to your accounts.

They nearly always seem to be genuine in content, and some can be quite worrying when they demand payment or inform you of issues in your accounts.

If you go to your account and log into your messages there – independently of the email (don’t click on any links in dodgy emails) – then all legitimate messages will also be there waiting for you within your account inbox.

If it the email in question is not there, consider it dodgy – it’s most likely a phishing scam, where they’re after your details.

For example, lately this email has been received by some sellers on Amazon:

You can often spot a phishing scam email from the bad grammar, spelling mistakes, strange syntax and frequent typos.

You can report emails you consider to be spam to your email provider and also to the company the phishing scam purports to be from.

Hi all,



Whatever you do, don’t go to your accounts via any email sent to your inbox. Some emails do look very genuine, but if the email is so, you will have notice of the issue or request in your Sellers Account inbox too.
