Amazon cada año ha optimizado sus protocolos de seguridad, y eso se debe a las múltiples denuncias que recibe por fraudes realizado por personas que utilizan la plataforma.
Hay muchos negocios que se hacen a través de Amazon y que la plataforma no puede controlar. Pero también existen mecanismos de seguridad que muchos usuarios ignoran.
Mediante los correos electrónicos, muchas personas aprovechan para convencer a los usuarios de hacer un negocio que termina en estafa. Por eso, Amazon establece ciertos límites que ayudarán a la persona a mejorar ese aspecto.
Detectar estafas vía e-mail
Desde su blog, Amazon señala lo siguiente: "Los emails de spoofing o phishing son correos electrónicos fraudulentos que intentan obtener tu información personal. Están hechos de manera que parezca que provienen de Amazon"
Las recomendaciones que hace Amazon si recibes un e-mail son:
- Los emails de Amazon siempre provendrán de una dirección que acabe en @amazon.es (por ejemplo, shipment-tracking@amazon.es, auto-confirm@amazon.es, no-reply@amazon.es).
Nota: si realizas una compra en otra página internacional de Amazon, el dominio de e-mail corresponderá al país en el que estés comprando (por ejemplo, todas las comunicaciones de Amazon.de provendrán de @amazon.de).
- Los enlaces a páginas web legítimas de Amazon comienzan con https://www.amazon.es o su equivalente si estás visitando una página internacional de Amazon (p. ej. https://www.amazon.fr si estás viendo la página francesa).
- Las páginas web legítimas de Amazon siempre incluyen un punto antes de «amazon.es», como https://www.«algo».amazon.es o «algo».amazon.es. Por ejemplo, Amazon Pay es https://pay.amazon.es. Las palabras que aparecen antes del punto nunca serán direcciones IP (cadena de números), como http://123.456.789.123/amazon.es/.
Nota: nunca haga clic en un enlace, ni abras un archivo adjunto ni respondas a un correo electrónico que sospeches que puede ser fraudulento. Si haces clic en un enlace o un botón por error, antes de introducir cualquier información, comprueba si la dirección web es una URL legítima de Amazon siguiendo los consejos anteriores.
Amazon nunca solicitará información personal por e-mail.
Amazon nunca solicitará actualizar información de pago que no esté vinculada a un pedido de Amazon que hayas realizado o a un servicio de Amazon al que te hayas suscrito.
Nota: ve a Mis pedidos. Si en esta página no hay ningún mensaje requiriéndote la actualización de tu método de pago, es porque el mensaje no procede de Amazon.
