Thanks in part to the coronavirus pandemic, more people than ever before now rely on Amazon for their shopping needs. During the June 2021 quarter, Amazon generated more than $113 billion in revenue.
Of this figure, nearly $68 billion was attributable to online sales. With Amazon's user base growing, and with so much money involved, it's no surprise that Amazon users are increasingly being targeted by scammers.
You might recall a recent Amazon scam where a woman was bilked out of $2,000. In that particular scheme, scammers called the woman and said someone was trying to buy an iPhone via her Amazon account.
After revealing sensitive financial information, the scammers were able to steal money from her checking account.
