I just got targeted!

Amazon Cust Service called, told me a $1,000 computer was charged to my account and will arrive tomorrow. Did I authorize it?

When I said no, they told me my account was flagged by Borders and Customers as being used to ship drugs and money over 22 times for a quarter million so far.

They immediately transfered me to the FBI......and guess what?

ANOTHER INDIAN VOICE!
This goober asked how many bank accounts I use, asked me what bank.
I told him only a F****** IDIOT would ask someone that over the phone.
He hemmed and hawed, then the money shot from me.....

"I recognize your voice, I think. Do I know your mother? We had her at
the lodge last week. Only time half the boys wouldn't touch a ho.

Is that you?"

*click*

Beware, I get a lot of scams claiming to Amazon.
And McAFFEE and Netflicks.

If it's one thing I know, Amazon "customer service" would never call anyone...LMAO

Is there even such a thing as Amazon customer service?
