This encourages to do lots of research and get the best for our readers. This time I got the news for those who are doing their business online with the help of world's biggest online shopping website 'Amazon'.
~ According to the news coming from the cyber security personals, the hackers hacked the third-party seller's accounts on the amazon and they are trying to make the customers and the merchant fool by offering those goods which are not available to steal thousands of rupees or dollars. After hacking the accounts, hackers are changing the bank details of the account holders to their owns and then stealing the money of the third-party sellers from the customers as well as from the merchants. According to the Wall Street Journal, they are making those account their target which are unused since long time for doing scam with the customers and merchants. First they hacks the unused accounts, then they shows those goods which does not exist in the present time on the website and then starts bargaining with the customers and the merchant. Once the price gets decided and then they will ask for the online payment first and then promises for the deliver within 2-3 working days and then simply went away or disappears from the account in such a way without leaving any of the traces.
~ Due to this some of the sellers are in the huge trouble of money crisis and on the other hand buyers are getting unexpected discounts. And the victims are suffering from the blames of the customers that they are taking money and not delivering the goods to them.
~ Let's have a real examples of this attack. Margina Dennis From New York city, is the one who has became the victim of this attack. She is a makeup artist by her profession. Hundreds of emails are received by her from her customers who are eagerly waiting for their Nintendo Switch, which are not delivered after taking money from them. As per the investigation, she came know that her account was hacked by the attackers and they are using her account to fool her customers and to stole their money. In further investigation, she came to know that her account's password was changed by the hacker and now she is unavailable of using it. She and many other people who are the victims of this attack are really very disappointed with the world's biggest online shopping website Amazon. Also now onward they are refusing to do any kind of business with this company due their safety has been compromised.
~ Amazon is also trying to find out the hackers who had done this and also trying to get some solutions for the sellers who are working with this company. An advise was given by the Amazon to its all users to turn on their 'two-step authentication', to check their accounts regularly and change the passwords too after every specific period of time.
