Amazon Account Wiped
Discussion
Haha, so the regular login is with a @googlemail.com address but the last time I tried to login it said the login details were incorrect (on multiple attempts) so I tried @gmail.com instead. Which for some reason let me login, but it's a new account with zero details attached?
I tried to speak to Amazon but the person on their end was, I guess, in a foreign call centre somewhere and the language barrier was proving problematic. In the meantime I logged out and tried to login with the @googlemail.com address again, still no dice so I reset the password and it lets me login and there's all my stuff.
I did try asking what had happened with the original login details and if they could tell me if the password had been reset recently but that seemed a bit taxing for her.
I experienced some card fraud a month or two back so maybe the two are connected?

I got a nice email from Amazon a week or so back saying they had found my username and password in one of the other data breaches, and had forcibly changed my Amazon password.
