This isn't very new. Started around Christmas time. It's spam.

I receive Amazon communications from 'order-update' from Amazon and I haven't ever opened one and hope never to open one by a slip of my fingers in error. Hubs, who wouldn't know Amazon from the Delaware River, would never know how to order from Amazon and so when I go through his spam (since I am his social media secretary) I realized immediately months ago that this was spam/scam/fraud of some kind. I just hate it.

They aren't new. I got one or two last week about a cancelled amazon order. Didn't click it, just deleted. It would be easy to to get tricked by one of them, though.

I have been getting those amazon ones for a long long time. They normally go directly to the spam folder.

Oh, well, they are new to me! I've been getting the "Microsoft" phone calls, the "IRS" calls, the fake "WhatsApp", "FEDEX" and "Google" email notifications for a long time -- always go straight to the spam folder thank goodness.

I like the ones that have all kinds of misspellings in them and desperately want me to click on some link they send multiple attempt emails. Ridiculous.

Then there are the calls despite being on the 'do not call' registry, which leave voicemails about attempting to locate me, if they were truly from somewhere important then they'd know it's my phone number they've just called and then left a 100% human, no robo-voicemail message. With the ability to spoof just about any phone number on the caller id we've long passed the point where a real solution should have been found and provided to people. Instead our own phone companies get to sell our information, as do our internet providers thanks to the FCC. *grumble*

Nothing new about it. Been going on for years.
