My facebook was hacked the other day... and my AMAZON has now been hacked.

I saw an e-mail today from 6:00am that my account ordered 7 Meta rayban glasses for over 2000 dollars. Used all my gift cards too. Jerks. When I immediately tried to log in and see what the order was about, there was NO account under my name or any link to an account via my email, username, or phone number. When I called amazon, they couldn't find it either with all my info. Nearly the same type of account deletion that happened with FB. And I had no notices that any of my account information had been changed, or that a new device was logged in, or anything else. ...which I usually get. I contested the pending charges with the bank, changed all passwords and everything associated with that account. Froze and cancelled cards, too. This is getting maddening. Amazon was the second site I used on a daily. Have any of you had your Amazon account hacked like that?

I had Amazon hacked once. At least, I think so. There was a movie...

Consider freezing credit at all 3 credit services.**

Credit card solicitations will drop off considerably when you do this one
