Posted April 15, 2020 Hey Guys, So I got an email just now that I ordered Red Dead Redemption 2 for $86 on Amazon from a company called Deal Beat. Went I tried to call I got they are down due to COVID19 and I cant cancel as it hasnt been shipped.... Oh to top it off I see there is a $150 item in my cart for a gift card to dreubarik@hotmail.com Anyone know how these things happen? I changed my passwords on amazon and email.... but curious if I'm the only one or is this more common than I know cheers. Hope everyone is doing well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted April 15, 2020 Also check your credit card purchase history to see if there are any unknown charges in case there are any purchases that didn't get reported to your email, or possibly reported to one of your alternate email addresses. Hopefully the damage was limited to your amazon account, but keep an eye on your credit card history to determine someone has your CC info. In case you have any remote desktop software installed on any of your PCs, remove it immediately. I had a similar situation where I had a remotely-accessible PC (huge no-no that I will never repeat) with login credentials that I imported from my main PC for "convenience" (another huge no). Thankfully I was home during a random vacation day, otherwise the damage could have been in the thousands of $, but in the end I was able to recover/cancel all the unauthorized charges with a fair bit of hassle.
