Just got an email claiming to be amazon saying that my phone number has been changed without permission and I should click on the 'Secure' link.

But since my phone always sends me a msg checking if its me logging into amazon. should I ignore this email?

It's best to log into Amazon the usual way and check things out. It sounds like an attempt to steal information by having you click on a phony link.

You should always check to see where links are going to take you before clicking on them in an email. And check the address, not just the name, that the email came from. If it didn't come from an Amazon address it's probably a phishing attack.

Legit companies often say they will never send messages asking you to verify information.

Now if you contact them, of course they want verification but they are not going to just randomly contact.

It might be an incredibly beautiful woman, maybe even a supermodel, wanting your bod. I've heard they do that!

@hunkalove Maybe, but I don't have the energy for that.

@Thevy29 I dunno. Sounds odd. Id have ignored it.
@Thevy29 you opened an attachment from an email you didn't trust? Usually the sender email address is a dead giveaway. Did it really come from amazon.com or some random string of letters? Either way, you can check your phone number in your Amazon account. If you receive a message when trying to login, your phone number clearly wasn't changed.

@NerdyPotato I hadn't had my coffee yet.. I checked my account everything is good.
