I received an Amazon Prime email…
I received an Amazon Prime email containing about 200 other email addresses listed under 'To' rather than 'Bcc' saying the following, quote: Dear Customer,
The system was unable to process the $14.99 charge and applicable taxes for your upcoming Amazon Prime billing cycle. This issue has caused a temporary hold on your membership benefits.

I had tried the 'free' trial and paid the one month fee that was to be fully refunded if I cancelled, and I did so when I discovered that they had egregiously signed me up for autopayments, something I did NOT request, but these companies try to get away with....my reply to the above: ToWhom It May Concern,
I CANCELLED my 'Prime' acct with Amazon some time ago as I did NOT authorize a monthy billing - check your records! it was cancelled as was any 'auto' payments that I've noticed companies love to do when a person tries something for the first time, with the promise of no additional charges, cancel at any time, etc. What is equally egregious is your using 'To' instead of 'Bcc' in this matter this is unacceptable, and I am going to do a review on Trustpilot of this example……you have put ALL of those highlighted, myself included, at risk of scammers, and having illegal sales of email addresses to unscrupulous scammers… Shame on you..
Since replying to this breach of privacy (no response from Prime to date) I have notified ALL of the recipients of this blanket email to write to Amazon Prime and voice their concerns....and believe me when I say 'bad reviews' are the bane of any business....I have had over 52,000 views of my reviews, and that is a LOT of people who hear why.
