Description
Recieved a postcard asking for a 5 star review on my recient amazon order in return for a 15.00 gift card. They wanted a review and a picture of the ordered product to post on Amazon reviews for this product. So I posted both. On the regular Amazon site. Recieved an email the next morning saying I'd get a card after the review was ok'd. I gave no order number, only a picture of the product and review. The email I recieved the next morning wanted more detailed info about me so I had a feeling they were phising so they could access my account. I changed my Amazon password, I have 2 step verification, checked for messages to me from Amazon on their site (no new ones) so I believe this is a scam and hopefully because of the steps I took and reporting this to Amazon and the BBB I have stopped them from further harm to me and prevent this from happening to others.
