Amazon customers are being warned about a new scam text message designed to steal personal details, according to Which?
Customers are being sent text messages which appear to be from Amazon and will ask for personal details. The texts will ask you to follow a link to secure your account following what has been an "attempted log in", are fake and should be ignored, the Liverpool Echo reports.
