For many,\u00a0<\/span>Amazon Prime Day is an opportunity to score some great deals.\u00a0<\/span>F<\/span>or hackers, Amazon\u2019s annual discount shopping campaign is an opportunity to target unsuspecting shoppers with phishing scams.\u202fIn fact<\/span>, researchers\u00a0<\/span>at\u00a0<\/span>McAfee Labs<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>previously<\/span>\u00a0uncovered a phishing kit specifically created to steal personal information from Amazon customers in America and Japan<\/span>\u00a0just in time for last year\u2019s Amazon Prime Day<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s dive into the details of how this phishing kit work<\/span>ed<\/span>\u00a0and what you can do to protect yourself while hunting for those\u00a0<\/span>Prime Day\u00a0<\/span>b<\/span>argains<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Phishing <\/span><\/b>Kit Allow<\/span><\/b>ed<\/span><\/b>\u00a0Hackers to<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/b>Target Amazon Users<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

You\u2019ve probably received an email that looked a bit\u00a0<\/span>phis<\/span><\/i>h<\/span><\/i>y<\/span><\/i>\u2014<\/span><\/i>perhaps the logo was just slightly off<\/span>–<\/span>centered, or something about it didn\u2019t feel quite right. That is how the phishing kit worke<\/span>d: hackers created fake emails that looked like they originated from Amazon<\/span>\u00a0(<\/span>but didn\u2019t<\/span>)<\/span>. Once opened, the email prompted the unsuspecting\u00a0<\/span>recipient<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>to\u00a0<\/span>provide their\u00a0<\/span>login\u00a0<\/span>credentials<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>on a malicious website. Once logged in, hackers had access to the<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>victim\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0entire account,\u00a0<\/span>enabling them to make purchases or even wors<\/span>e, steal<\/span>\u00a0the victim\u2019s<\/span>\u00a0credit card information.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When this threat first emerged,<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>the\u00a0<\/span>McAfee Labs researchers<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>reported\u00a0<\/span>widespread use<\/span>\u00a0of th<\/span>e<\/span>\u00a0phishing kit<\/span>\u00a0\u2013<\/span>\u00a0with over 200 malicious URLs\u00a0<\/span>deployed\u00a0<\/span>on innocent online shoppers.\u00a0<\/span>T<\/span>he phishing kit\u00a0<\/span>was then<\/span>\u00a0sold through an active Facebook group with over 300 members<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>looking for a<\/span>\u00a0way to access unsuspecting shoppers\u2019 Prime accounts<\/span>.\u00a0<\/span>McAfee notified Facebook of th<\/span>is group\u2019s activity when it\u00a0<\/span>surfaced,<\/span>\u00a0and the<\/span>\u00a0social network\u00a0<\/span>took<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>an active\u00a0<\/span>role<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>in\u00a0<\/span>removing groups and accounts that violate their policies.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Protect Your Prime Day Shopping <\/span><\/b>w<\/span><\/b>ith These Tips<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Users hoping to score some online shopping deals this week should familiarize themselves with common phishing tactics to help protect their personal and financial information.<\/span>\u00a0If you\u2019re planning on participating in Prime Day, follow these security steps to help you swerve malicious cyberattacks<\/span>\u00a0and shop with peace of mind<\/span>:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beware of bogus deals<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If you see an ad for Prime Day that looks too good to be true, chances are that the ad isn\u2019t legitimate.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Play it safe and don\u2019t click on the ad.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Think before you click<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Be skeptical of ads shared on social media sites, emails, and messages sent to you through platforms like Facebook, Twitter<\/span>,<\/span>\u00a0and WhatsApp. If you receive a suspicious message regarding Prime Day, it\u2019s best to avoid interacting with the message<\/span>\u00a0altogether<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do your due diligence with discount codes<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If a discount code lands in your inbox, you\u2019re best off verifying it through Amazon.com directly rather than clicking on any links.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you do suspect that your Amazon Prime account has been compromised due to a cyberthreat, take the following steps:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Change your password<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Change the passwords to any accounts you suspect may have been impacted. Make sure\u00a0<\/span>your new credentials<\/span>\u00a0are strong and unique<\/span>\u00a0from your other logins<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0For tips on how to create a more secure password,\u00a0<\/span>read our blog on\u00a0<\/a><\/span>common password habits<\/span><\/a>\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0<\/span>how to safeguard your accounts.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep an eye on your bank account<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

One of the\u00a0<\/span>most effective<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>ways to determine whether someone is fraudulently using your credit card information is to monitor your bank statements. If you see any charges that you did not make, report it to the authorities immediately.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Consider using identity theft protection<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

A solution like\u202f<\/span>McAfee Identify Theft Protection\u202f<\/span><\/a>will help you to monitor your accounts and alert you of any suspicious activity.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
