Warning email from Amazon

[Elgin]

Hi x265 you are from spain? I'm from Spain. I receibed the warning mail 1th of august. The strange thing is that they sed from amazon.uk and the message is not in the spanish account box. You have to go to amazon.co.uk and log with your username to see the warning mail.
I asked to amazon.es about it and they answered me that everything is ok with my account and forget the amazon.co.uk email. I really don't know if amazon.co.uk can close an amazon.es account.

I only received the warning one but never have rented anything; I only donload series from Prime and AMC Selekt.

Hi there, this is known. I have the same issue, just for my german account. The mail was sent from uk, though I never used that account for streaming. The german service has told me as well they have no information on it and that I should just ignore it.

The point is: It's still to risky. Maybe they can close the account, maybe not. Who knows for certain?

btw: over on the official reddit someone claims to have gotten the warning email by just using a VPN. Supposedly he/she never downloaded anything, nor does she/he have steamfab. Strange if true.

For my Amazon US account, i got the email and it was also in messages.

For my Amazon Canada account, i got the email only and it was not in my messages.

Both emails were in my SPAM folder

Opened a burner account after i updated the software to 6.4.2.7, have rented 2 movies and had trial p+ then also downloaded a movie included with prime sub w/ ads and also a show from prime and havent received and hopefully wont receive anything.

Sorry if this has been asked and answered already. But does this message also appear in the message center in your amazon account?

I've yet to receive this message to my email. I'm not sure if my Wife has gotten it being that Her's is the primary on our shared account.

Of course. with the latest version of StreamFab, shouldn't this happen? So something is wrong, am I right?

If I can add a little to this, they are definitely looking back several weeks for activity, or they're back-logged.
So if you had activity when the first notices were reported you may not be in the clear yet.

I did the same thing most did when noticing this thread a while back.
I even checked my messages at the time and didn't see anything.

But it didn't help.

*Sorry for the vagueness, just trying to say its hard to gauge how long before someones in the clear. Right now weeks isn't long enough.

clean install, or did u just update sf?
also, are us sure u received that mail today? as u cutted the header in ur screenshot, we cant see the date of the mail...

_______________

i received that mail few days after i rented a movie and downloaded it. (mail on August 1st - rent/dl on July 29). / I returned the movie after the dl 2 safe the money .....
since then, i have downloaded stuff from a few amazon channels, and i didnt receive a new mail / a ban.

So i m pretty sure, this is only about renting/buying movies - downloading - then returning it.

Of course. with the latest version of StreamFab, shouldn't this happen? So something is wrong, am I right?

did you have a free promotional period (like a free trial) that ended without you taking up the subscription?

Yes, I signed up for AMC+ a month ago (free trial period) and a few days ago the subscription ended, I did not renew it.

u once again blurred the date of the email ? (top right corner)?
why would u do that? sorry for beeing suspicious, but there are to many trolls out there.....

Probably to not give Amazon a way of pinpointing who he is if they read this forum...

We don't know how many of these emails are being sent at the same time. What if they emailed everyone over the past month, and now they only send 3 or 4 emails per day?

Would be easy to see which user was sent an email at that specific date and time

[jpp72]

Wilson.Wang Ok well then I guess that answers if it still happening right.

Not necessarily. If he was downloading with versions lower than 6.2.4.7 AFTER the 1st reports of the email, then we cannot be sure.

These emails are clearly being sent in batches so that Sophos systems don't flag them and blacklist the mail servers.

The only way to truly know is to use an account that has never downloaded with anything lower than 6.2.4.7
