Description

I was having problems with my Apple phone, so I tried to contact Apple support. It took me to a phone number in India, where a man told me that there was a large number of people who had access to my Amazon account.. I wised up before I gave him any information but this is the second time this has happened to me. I don’t really understand how they can get away with listing a phone number and associated with a reputable business.
