The Better Business Bureau Serving Central Indiana says scammers aren't done using Amazon Prime Day as an excuse to steal your money. Here's what to look out for:
The BBB says scammers are using the promise of big discounts to target your bank account.You receive an unsolicited email or text message appearing to be from a major retailer. The subject line reads something like, “You Have a New Reward to Claim!”
You open the message, and it looks real. There’s the company logo, colors and a link to claim the reward points or gift from your recent holiday shopping. As curious as you may be, don’t fall for it. Scammers hide malware in these email links or attachments. When you click, they can gain access to your computer and steal your sensitive personal information.
BBB has also seen these phishing scams pop up during the winter holidays and other major shopping events.Scam reports can be filed on the BBB's website.
