Is amazon.com Safe?

Over the past 6 months I have placed about 20 orders. The products tend to arrive about a day earlier than estimated and in the one case where a product was not performing adequately, the vendor replaced the item with no hassle. I love "prime" I must have downloaded over 500 free ebooks ( I read WAY too much) and have ordered many items using their service. I have been a prime member for about 4 years.

I have used Amazon for a long time. I think I saved enough to put up with Spam. But today I got a popup on an Amazon URL that started as follows: "Dear ***** user, Congratulations! You have been randomly chosen to receive some exclusive gifts from our team (all worth over $50!)" Following the link on this pop-up took me to a site that asked for my personal information including credit card information for my (presumably free) Gift! I've been retired for some time now so I no longer try to keep up with what the hackers are able to do these days. So, if this is a hack of there site, I invite them to come here and explain how we can recognize it. If it is of their doing, shame on them.

Regularly hosts spammers, and criminals who use Amazons servers with impunity. Amazon is extremely slow in shutting down these sorts of behaviour . Amazons servers have been firewalled due to the high risk of malware, spam, scam etc etc that are hosted. e.g. ***** A jpmonfort spam site NEVER trust a spammer NEVER buy from spammers (HIGH fraud risks) NEVER visit spammed web sites (HIGH malware risks)

Love the one click and do most of my shopping here but for some items the price is higher for prime members, giving the illusion to prime members that they are getting good value with their membership. If you are a prime member, log out and view certain items and you will see that they are suddenly available for a lower price.
