"Important information about your Amazon.com account"
The one moment it's about your Amazon account and the next it's about your most recent order (or orders, not even the scammers seem to know). Seems like the scammers can't make up their minds about what they want to scam you about.

How thoughtful of the scammers, providing tips on how to stay safe from phishing scammers. Looks like there is no need for this website anymore, the scammers are doing our work for us. By the way, how do you give "instructions future instruction"?
