I have been getting cancellation notices from my "hotmail" for over a year. I always enjoy reading the absolutely odd English they employ trying to convey their point. It is such a giveaway to the phishing, even when they have the correct logos, etc. I've also gotten them for my credit cards. For those I call my 800 numbers about and forward the email to their "scam department" if requested. can't be too careful these days!

it's not a question of getting your email, they just send them out to any possible email address, or they may have bought your address off a list somewhere ( when you signed up for something).

Like the bank phishing emails, you get some from banks you don't do business with. But if they send them out to 100,000 emails, they will get some people who DO use that bank. Shotgun approach.

I also got the Amazon.com scam email. did not take the bait b/c I knew I hadn't cancelled an order.

We got one of those yesterday. I forwarded it to Amazon.com

If the subject is Amazon.com, that doesn't mean they sent it. Never click on those. Write an e-mail to them yourself and tell them what you got. Lots of people try to send very "official" looking e-mails from different companies. I have been getting e-mails from my dead niece for two years, starting the day after we buried her. Someone stole her e-mail address book. Such a shame how nasty some people can be.

I wonder if this explains how I kept ordering something and upon cancellation, would try again.
After two days, I had three! of them coming and had to put in my own cancellations
