AMAZON Phishing scam

So I realize today is the last day for AMAZON's Prime days but as expected someone is going to try to make a buck out of it.

Seems it is an old scam just re-fashioned for Amazon this time.

If you're looking to buy anything from amazon, you might have heard of the Amazon Phishing scam. This scam involves an email that looks like it's from Amazon but is actually a scam. The email will ask for your personal information, including your credit card number and the last four digits of your credit card. The best way to avoid this scam is by not giving out any personal information unless you know for sure that it's legitimate. You can check whether an email is from Amazon before giving them any personal information.
