Some Internet sleaze ball spammer has hit on the idea of trying to fake people out by sending the following email. The idea being that you say “what order!” and then click on the link. That then takes you to God knows where. Instead of clicking the link, go to your regular Amazon.com bookmark just to make sure that your account hasn’t been hacked.
Your order has been successfully canceled. For your reference, here’s a summary of your order:
You just canceled order #155-529594-6657462 placed on February 4, 2012.
Status: CANCELED
