I was once messaged after ordering a package on Amazon. The message said to click the link to track your order. I thought it was real, but it turns out it was fake, and they were trying to get my card information so they could buy things. I could tell that this was fake by looking at the website URL, and also the word choice that was used in the message that was sent to me.
