Just a heads up to watch out for these phishing emails. They look fairly official, and they have an attachment.

Only reason I was suspicious was because it came through my website email address, which I NEVER use for ordering anything.

Inside is a link to click on to log in to "your account" and check the status of your order. I assume the "link" takes you to a fake page that tries to collect your Amazon login information.

I've been getting about 5 of these a day for the past couple days.

Stupid phishers.

Lets be careful out there
