Hello,
Recently in the last few weeks when using Amazon.co.uk, I’ve seen different behaviour than normal as follows:
I shop around the site and add items to my basket. I click on the basket when done to view. All good.
I then click on the link to ‘proceed to checkout’ and the normal ‘sign in’ page pops up. Its looks normal, the simple layout and only really two boxes (email address and password). The URL looks right as well (https/www.amazon.co.uk/ap/signin?) . However, when I then click on the ‘sign in’ button, a windows pop up appears that states: Internet Redirection – You are about to be redirected to a new internet site. Any information you exchange with the current site could be transmitted to the new internet site, Do you want to continue?
The pop up looks like a genuine windows system notification / warning.
I of course click no, at which point I’m back to the basket screen. If I repeat I get the same result.
The only work around is if I go in via order history or something like that, then it all works as expected, and as I have authenticated, it avoids the ‘sign in’ screen.
I have not seen any strange behaviour on any other site, banking or commerce. I use the internet a lot. Turning off machine, clearly cache etc, re-booting router, makes no difference.
I doubt very much that Amazon is re-directing me at the Sign-In page, but at a lost to what is causing it. Because the url is right, and only happens on this page on Amazon’s site, it makes me think the issue is there. Has anyone else seen this or have any ideas?
