Amazon: How to Report a Scam or Fraud

Scammed by a seller, charged for an order you didn’t place, or contacted by someone claiming to be Amazon? Here are the official ways to report it in 21 countries, read on Amazon’s own help pages, plus the buyer-protection deadline and where to escalate.

Do this first

  1. Stop all contact and payments. Amazon will never ask you to pay outside its own checkout, share a one-time code or install a remote-access app.
  2. Report it inside the official Amazon app or website (steps below), not through a link or number you were sent.
  3. Only call the numbers below. Numbers found on Google, social media or in a message are often fake.
  4. If you paid by card, bank transfer or a payment app, call your bank’s fraud line now: see Bank Fraud Help.
  5. Watch the buyer-protection deadline below: claims made late are usually refused.

Know this about Amazon

  • Amazon will never ask for your password, one-time code (OTP), gift card or bank details over the phone, or ask you to pay outside its website or app. If a caller makes you uneasy, hang up and contact Amazon through the app or website.
  • Outside the US and Canada, Amazon does not publish a customer service phone number: contact it through Customer Service in the app or website after signing in. Treat any other number claiming to be Amazon as a scam.
  • On most Amazon stores, asking your bank or card provider for a chargeback makes you ineligible for an A-to-z Guarantee refund, so decide which route to use first.
