My worst week started with a fake email from 'Amazon' about a $700 order

I mean, it looked real, with my name and a link to cancel the order. I clicked it and typed my password before I noticed the weird URL. The next day, my bank called about a $300 charge in Miami. I had to freeze everything and spent hours changing passwords. Has anyone else gotten better at spotting those fake links?

Ugh, I fell for a fake PayPal one last month.

Used to think I was too smart for that stuff.
