Scots are being warned to watch out after an Amazon Prime scam is defrauding people out of money.
It comes just days after we warned of another scam circulating at the moment, involving a text from someone called Emma needing help in hospital.
But the latest scam, which has been circulating, sees potential victims receive an unexpected phone call, Wales Online reports.
The scam involves victims receiving an automatic phone call, which claims that they've just been charged for an Amazon Prime subscription.
The recipient is told that fraudsters have used their details to subscribe to Amazon Prime and that they can cancel the transaction by simply pressing 1.
And according to a recent report by the Guardian, one elderly victim was last month defrauded out of £25,000 as a result of the scam.
One variation of the scam claims that doing so will provide the recipient with more information, whilst a slightly different call promises to connect victims with an 'account manager' - who is in fact a fraudster.
Whichever version of the phone call received, the end goal appears to be the same - to get the recipients to press 1 and therefore connect to a premium rate number.
This of course will come at the expense of the recipient and could see a hefty addition to the phone bill.
