Does this person work for amazon AWS KYC or Accounts Receivable I received two different emails with different phone numbers in two separate invoices plus they responded in LinkedIn too? https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrickcapillas/lg...

I opened a free tier account with Amazon to learn about AWS for a job I was working for, I never used it at all after it was opened and never touched again since when I left my job I no longer need to learn AWS. Fast forward to March of 2022 which I got and email from AWS that my personal account might have been compromised and to please contact support through the control panel. I went through all the directions of the support personnel ONLINE thru WEBCHAT ONLY, they directed me to enter my credit card just so the account was fully active and they would only charge $1 to make sure the card works. I entered the card and proceeded to follow directions how to remove all of the information that the HACKERS had left behind and what was causing all of the billing for my account that was compromised of $18,XXX.XX. Then in April my AMEX card was automatically billed $2,4XX.XX and the support person said of sorry it was automatically billed (I argued that you lied and told me there would only be $1 charged but they had no answer for me now I called AMEX and placed a dispute on that bill!). So finally I clean up all of the hackers remains and they stated that sales/security has to review the request that these were fraudulent charges, I stated of course they were, you alerted me that someone compromised my account! Now they want me to send them $18,XXX.XX and they stated it will be credited back to me either if I used my credit card or WIRE TRANSFER. They would credit my account and send the money back?????? I said no I don't have those funds and I didn't create those bills, now they come back and state they made a decision and it stands I owe the money! Do I need a lawyer for this? I also believe this 1st email may not be real from AWS since they don't provide phone numbers ever! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dear Amazon Web Services, Inc.

Hello, on saturday 06/04 my account was hacked by an error when I published a password in a public repository, when I received the change email, I deleted all keys and roles, as well as aws users, I changed the password of the account, and changed my email password, actrive MFA with the phone, I stopped all services that were started (apparently for mining with EC2) and checked everything, However, the account is still violated, currently with a charge of 40 usd of something I never use and I fear it will continue to rise, I already sent a case in review, attached images, but no one solves the problem, I want to delete the account, I want to unlink my data, every hour that passes I feel that more charges will be generated, more services initiated, EVERYTHING. besides if i close the account, the charge will remain open and will arrive to my address, a charge that i never used, i only had the account for educational purposes. this is totally frustrating, i talked to support but they take 2 days to answer every message, and every second that passes a new active service is generated.... I do not know what to do, I have seen cases where they reach 10k of debt, and I do not want to reach that, I am a student, I can not pay, and above all, I can not pay something that does not correspond to me, my account was HACKED, it is as simple to verify my innocence as to see from where the requests are made, instance creations, accesses. and see that does not correspond with my country and address registered in the AWS account...PLEASE I NEED HELP.lg...

On 26th Feb, I received a mail from AWS ragrding Irreular activity so I immediately followed the steps mentioned in that email, I deleted the access key, changed my password. I couldn't see any new user,roles and ploicies in IAM at that time but now I can see 30 roles and policies applied. I have deleted the roles and policies and other amazon resources whic were producing the bill. I made this account only for educational purpose, I cant afford to pay such an amount $(2845+3431). I'm a student. Today I generated a support ticket 9763861881 and reopend the ticket which got generated on 26th Feb for irregular activity. Please assist.lg...

I'm having difficulty finding information about the `entityId` and `eventId` input variables to [get a prediction](https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/latest/reference/services/frauddetector.html#FraudDetector.Client.get_event_prediction) from Amazon Fraud Detector. The description is only "*The unique ID used to identify the event.*" and "*The entity ID. If you do not know the entityId , you can pass unknown , which is areserved string literal.*" Can someone explain why this variable is important? What happens if someone uses the same event ID for two different events? How are entity IDs created?lg...

' trying to deep dive on Amazon Fraud Detector [deployment pricing](https://aws.amazon.com/fraud-detector/pricing/). My understanding is that customers pay both a per-hour charge ("hosting charge") and a prediction charge ("fraud prediction charge"). Is that correct? For example, let's say a customer deploys a fraud model to make 1MM predictions a month. - hosting charge = 30 days x 24 hours x 1 model x $0.06 per compute hour = $43.20 - prediction charge = 0.03*400000 + 0.015*600000 = $21K Correct?lg...
