Fake emails claiming your Amazon Prime subscription will automatically renew are being sent to customers’ inbox.

According to reports, more than 200 million have been warned by Amazon.

In some instances, the email may include personal information, tempting customers to believe in the legitimacy of the email. In fact, as Malwarebytes reports, some emails include a “cancel subscription.” Others, as seen here, show an “update payment method” button.

If a scammer gets your information, they have access to details they can use to login to the Amazon site and purchase items.

“We’ve recently noticed an increase in customers reporting fake emails about Amazon Prime membership subscriptions. We want to help you stay protected by sharing important information about these scams,” Amazon’s warnings said.

Here’s what you can do:

• If you receive an email, don’t click on the links.
• If you are unsure, Malwarebytes suggest checking the “Message Centre” under your account. All company-issued messages appear here as well.
• Report the scam to Amazon.
