The server hosting the site is located in Latvia

A shady online pharmacy, hosted on healthcarewelbizness.com, is pushed via emails that purport to originate from Amazon.

Bearing the subject “Amazon.com Password Assistance,” the notification informs the recipient that a password reset request has been sent from his/her email address.

Dynamoo’s Blog reports that the message also comes with a link that can allegedly cancel or complete the request.

In reality, the link points to the pharmacy site, hosted on a server in Latvia on which a number of similar websites are stored.

To make everything more credible-looking, the cybercrooks that launched the campaign even included an advisory to warn users that Amazon.com will never ask them to disclose passwords, credit card details, or bank account information.

Internauts are recommended to ignore such shady Amazon emails.
