How to Spot the Amazon Scam
- Be skeptical of unsolicited calls. Some departments at Amazon will call customers, but Amazon will never ask you to disclose or verify sensitive personal information or offer you a refund you do not expect.
- Amazon will never ask you to make a payment outside of their website and will never ask you for remote access to your device.
- Amazon will never send you an unsolicited message that asks you to provide sensitive personal information.
- Any customer who receives a questionable email or call from a person impersonating an Amazon employee should report them to Amazon customer service immediately.

MI Robocall Crackdown TeamAs the Department continues to crack down on robocalls, consumers should take these steps to protect themselves:
- Hang up and call the company directly using a number listed on the company's website.
- Never give personal information to someone you do not know.
- Ignore calls for immediate action; scammers try to use a sense of urgency to get you to act before you can think about what is happening.
- Beware of requests to pay via wire transfer, prepaid debit card, gift card, or any type of payment app.
