Pretty sure this is not Amazon. Received this call a day after ordering a laptop. They had my name and asked to confirm if I had bought a laptop. I said yes. I gave them no further info and they didn't ask for any.
I felt this to be odd so I googled and came across this. I called Amazon first who confirmed they DO NOT MAKE THESE TYPES OF CALLS. I have changed my password and have also added phone verification.
I logged into online banking - no dodgy transactions showed up, so called my bank to check. All the pending transactions that showed up were legit, except a £1 Amazon charge (on top of the £550 that was my legit order). The bank lady didn't seem too concerned with that one but I am not convinced, so am going to keep my eye on my balance over the next few days just to make sure.
I don't get the angle on this scam. I gave them nothing they didn't already have, so why make the call and make me suspicious?? It would make so much more sense not to call me
