Amazon users targeted with new phishing attack
Users who receive an email claiming their Amazon account is about to expire should think twice before clicking on any attachments.

Attackers have been widely spamming messages – purportedly sent from Amazon – claiming users' accounts are about to be deactivated. The messages, of course, were not actually sent from Amazon and, in fact, aim to trick users into revealing their personal data.
