Amazon costumers getting sign-in code emails

So apparently this is not just happening to me... Other users are getting same email with a sign in code even though we didn't; request one.

Dont worry about it. Is probably someone trying to hack multiple accounts, make sure to change your password by going to the amazon website. Don´t touch emails asking for password changes.

No worries. It's just some idiot clicking on "Forgot password" feature and since you're in control of the e-mail you get the notification.

Potential Amazon "Data breach".

 

TL;DR: Amazon Employees shared/sold customers email addresses, malicious parties are now abusing those emails.

Considering I have never updated my password on Amazon I guess this is as good of an excuse as any.

Thank science for password managers xD

I haven't seen a email about my Amazon account yet. I have a Amazon Fire HD 10 so I hope it's not that bad
