Holiday season mixed with a pandemic is ripe for fraud.

Amazon Prime wants everyone to be aware of a robocall scam.

People are receiving a recorded call, supposedly from Amazon stating there is a pending charge of $799, according to the Detroit Free Press.

The call then directs you to hit 1 or another key to continue.

That's when you will be directed to a site that looks like Amazon and directed to put your personal information.

The Federal Trade Commission said consumers can report fraud whether they have lost money or not to ReportFraud.ftc.gov
