Amazon India silly bug/big security issue for customers - abcxyz@gmail.com/ abc.xyz@gmail.com

Jan 1, 2021 27 Comments

I keep getting shipping notifications of people ordering stuffs using similar email ids (different placement of dots in gmail). I am assuming these people are novice to digital world and just trying to use some email id, similar to their name in their amazon logins.
I tried reporting multiple times to Amazon and they say Amazon India is entirely different system.
Wondering how novice Amazon India system is that treats abc.xyz@gmail.com and abcxyz@gmail.com, as two different email ids and how helpless I am, to rescue myself from this spam!

Think about it, someone purchases grey stuffs from marketplace and just gives email id of some random guy. Can create big issues for that random guy - Personal/Legal.

Additionally the guy who holds the gmail account may get access to other amazon accounts. (Hope amazon security is not that worse)
