About this listen
In this episode of Scam DamNation and Monday Tips, Lillian Cauldwell breaks down an urgent Amazon Scam Warning that every shopper needs to understand this holiday season. Amazon has reported a sharp increase in fraudulent emails, phone calls, and text messages designed to mimic official communication from the company. These scams are highly convincing and often timed to coincide with order confirmations, delivery updates, and return requests.
Lillian explains how this three-pronged attack works, why scammers increase their activity during the holidays, and how they use emotional pressure — such as fake account issues or suspicious-activity alerts — to get victims to act quickly without thinking. Even tech-savvy customers can be fooled. Listeners will learn the key signs of a phishing attempt, how to check whether a message is legitimate, and what steps to take if you think you’ve clicked on something suspicious.
Lillian also highlights insights from a Men’s Journal article that supports Amazon’s public warning and breaks down the top tactics scammers are using right now. This episode is essential for anyone who shops online — and especially those who receive a high number of shipping notifications during the holiday rush. Lillian’s guidance offers simple ways to stay safe, avoid pressure tactics, and protect your personal information from being stolen.
If you know someone who might be vulnerable to digital fraud, make sure they hear this important discussion. Sharing it could help someone avoid becoming a victim during the busiest shopping season of the year.
