Shoppers should remember emails that include the Postal Service logo or mention Amazon.com could still be fake.

“Amazon scams are especially hug because they’re a giant retailer, right? Almost everybody shops on Amazon’s website at one time or another,” said Jamie Harding with AARP Alabama.

Scammers may contact people, claiming their package is lost or they need personal information so their account is not shut down.To tell if a message is legitimate, check the email address of the company contacting you. You may need to hover over the sender’s name. “You can often see, if you sort of click on that email address, where it’s actually going to,” Harding said.

As for Amazon, the company says it will never ask shoppers to click a link that contains a random string of numbers, such as this: http://123.456.789.123/amazon.com. Instead, real links will have a dot before “amazon.com,” such as http://“something”.amazon.com.
