Got a text message about my Amazon account being suspended due to suspicious activity. Text message with stellar English.

PSA: this is one of the blog posts that is getting plagiarized. Hoping Google legal team is going to help as I have reported it to them.

I was going to try to report this to Amazon but when I went to the link in a browser the first time I got a 500 error. The page worked on a mobile device. I went back to the browser and the second time the page works.
The thing is, I’m already logged into one Amazon account (I have a few for different purposes). When I try to go to the page to report suspicious activity, it tries to force me to login again even though…
