There are endless Amazon scams by phone, email and text message plus copycat websites etc.
This one below was sent by a moron too dumb to change “subscribers_email_address” to the actual email addresses he was sending to.
A more intelligent scammer might offer a discount on a gift voucher or a free smaller value voucher as no-one in their right mind would believe they will get a £1,000 gift voucher for just filling in a short survey.
The scammer wants you to pay £1 for the voucher so he can get your payment details then empty your account.
Here’s the scam message.
