Amazon has refunded the woman whose toddler inadvertently bought a $400 couch via the retail giant's "1-Click" ordering option using her mom's cellphone, after CBS MoneyWatch reported the incident.
And one has to question if the mom 'claimed' the kid purchased the sofa . . . or was it truly mom and she just wanted her money back?
Oh, I don’t doubt it was the kid. My 3 yr old granddaughter ordered herself a movie on my amazon prime from her mom’s phone. She knew the passcode to both...kids aren’t stupid they watch everything! Yes, passcodes have been changed.
This the above case, it does not matter whose ordered it; it can be returned or the order can be cancelled.

Not always. If it ships from a third party Amazon seller they may not take it back or charge you a restocking charge plus shipping charges back. However; these things don't ship overnight so she had to have received an email that confirmed her order well within the cancellation time frame. She needed to pay better attention to her emails.
Simple solution: take the phone away from the kid. Problem solved.
This!!! They'll be addicted soon enough, why encourage it at such a young ago. Perhaps some adults think it's 'cute' and want to boast about their munchkin having the ability to use technology that young.
My autistic son once got on my phone & ordered a pepperoni pizza when I went to pay for gas at a station next to a pizza joint.
He was 10 & functionally non-verbal but they had a sign up with their phone number on it & somehow he got it done. Never underestimate the power of pizza, I suppose.
I realized when I got back in the car that my phone wasn’t in my purse anymore & saw it in his hand with the number still on the screen so I called them back & sure enough ... we had to pick up a pizza.
