Ok, I'll just leave it I wouldn't know what I was doing anyways. Thanks everyone for helping me out, I've learned two things tonight - never click on things I'm unsure of and what headers are lol

Fingers: They're definitely not.

In hotmail, I think there's a drop down arrow at the top of the email where 'reply' etc. is at.. and you can click it and 'view message source'. If you want to do that, you will get the source, and you can copy/paste it and send it to Amazon also.

Edit to add: Yeah, I think you've done enough. And, you have learned something. So that's a good thing. :)

Exactly, it's turned out to be kind of good, so long as no one robs me in the near future! Lol

x-evenstar-x always hover over links you are unsure of in future and you should see the full url on your status bar.

....and if it is different from the one you are hovering over DON'T click on it!

Ok, thank you :blush:

lol, my mom got fooled by this. It was a fake email saying the tv she bought (which she obviously didn't) was on its way. She called amazon and everything. I took one look at the email and could tell it was fake

Nearly got done by one from the Royal Mail, it had their email address it was sent from and everything, the main reason I nearly get fooled was because I was expecting a parcel and it was late, but just deleted it anyway in case, and there's no way they'd be asking me to open an excel file

I was on Amazon earlier in the week ordering a gift and one of the reviews was a complaint about the oersons account being hacked and the item being delivered to the thief, so the scammers are having some success.

From Amazon's website, today:

"Unexpected E-mail from Amazon?
If you received an e-mail regarding an order you don't recognise, please check Your Orders in Your Account. If you can't find a matching order, the e-mail you received wasn't from Amazon.co.uk. We recommend that you delete the e-mail. There's no need to report these particular e-mails to us, as we are investigating the matter. You can read tips on safe online shopping here."

I've had a couple of these and clicked them as I shop with Amazon a lot,I thought I had all my orders but wondered if I forgot something so checked,worried now.

To be on the safe side, just change your password.

yes good idea

Good thinking fingers:hugesmile:

i gave him that idea :hmph::idc:
