Amazon Now Requires One-Time Passwords for High-Value Orders

Subheadline: Measure Designed to Enhance Security and Prevent Fraud

Effective Immediately, OTPs Required for Delivery of Certain Items

In a move to enhance the security of high-value orders and prevent fraud, Amazon has announced that one-time passwords (OTPs) will now be required for the delivery of certain items. Customers will receive an OTP via email or text message, which they will need to provide to the delivery driver upon receipt of the order.

The implementation of OTPs is part of Amazon's ongoing efforts to improve the security of its platform and protect its customers from fraudulent activities. By requiring an OTP for high-value orders, Amazon aims to deter potential fraudsters and ensure that only authorized recipients receive the items.
