Hi: Every so often, Amazon will do this if you have to log in more than they like.
They used to provide an audio equivalent, but, last time, they seemed to have removed it. They have a link that says something like, "Visually impaired or can't see the image", but, when you click that, you have to call a number and they can give you a code to override. Amazon has given visually impaired folks only a token acknowledgement, and, they have never showed that they care much about the visually impaired. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+joseph.norton=gmail....@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of David via Talk Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2017 11:08 PM To: ukekearu...@valtdnet.com; Window-Eyes Discussion List <talk@lists.window-eyes.com>; 'Rod Hutton' <rod_hut...@hotmail.com> Subject: Re: SOMETHING STRANGE ON AMAZON.COM Not on Amazon myself, so would be a general guess. Seems like they are performing some kind of security checking on you. Some websites do this kind of checking once in a while, on arbitrarily customers. Hopefully they do not intend to do this every time you log on to their services, in the coming. First thing I would do, is to go to the address bar of the browser, and just make sure it really is an Amazon address. This just to ensure you have not been hi-jacked, and redirected to some fake service. Next, you could try accessing the site, from Firefox with WebVisum. If this is a mere periodic check you should be able to logon using the captcha once, and then be good to go from any browser later on. Is it, on the other hand, a newwly introduced standard routine of theirs, you might have to permanently log on to their services from now on, with Firefox. Does Amazon have any customer care service line, either by phone or mail? If so, it could be worth to contact them, and ask if they have any solution in place for visually impaired people.
