Sandra, I did a Google search with the words amazon and captcha. In one of the results, I found the following explanation:
The web version of Amazon requires the user to complete a CAPTCHA after ten incorrect password attempts, to prevent password cracking. However, Amazon’s mobile apps haven’t adopted such protection using CAPTCHA. This design flaw provides attackers the chance to crack any Amazon account’s password using brute force.

The same issue I wrote about previously with Amazon is recurring: a captia required when signing in, making the site entirely impossible to use. Does anyone have a phone # for Amazon so I can try to resolve this—AGAIN? Thanks!
