My Amazon account got hacked and it’s been the best thing ever
I don’t know if this belongs here, but I thought this community would appreciate it.
I used to use Amazon like a personal assistant. Anytime I needed anything, I just hit up Bezos. It was bad. I had so much pointless junk. I gave him SO MUCH MONEY… for junk.
About 6 months ago my Amazon account got hacked. (That’s a whole ‘nother story for a different day.) At first I thought my life was going to end. But luckily I only had my debit card linked and an employer card. I quickly deleted both and asked for new cards. I filed claims and did the whole nine yards.
The hacker got to keep my account tho. Amazon could not retrieve it for me.
I haven’t used Amazon since. I don’t need anything. I already bought everything I could ever need during the years when I had my account. Now I just buy replacements as I need them during my monthly Target or Costco trips. I have saved SO MUCH MONEY by not having an Amazon account.
It’s wildly obvious. My wallet is significantly fatter.
