SCAM-SPAM amazon emails
Today I received a canselation of my Amazon order. Curiously cause I made an amazon order last week but did not cancel it, I opened the email only to realize that I had not ordered the canceled item. The links provided in the email were to some Canadian pharmacy. Similar technique with the Youtube email scams.
