Is it possible that they don't even know what's happened yet?
They're not stupid. Covering it up only makes it worse. I think they're just stalling until they figure it out.

This is most likely related to the LinkedIN hack from 2012, but someone is now selling that data of 117 million people with decrypted passwords.
It's also pretty easy to look at their downtime last week as a huge red flag.
I don't think shared passwords are being reused once inside the session, mostly because why would you need to hijack someone's box to do so? Just log into Amazon from wherever.
They might be used to get into the remote session in some cases, but a lot of people who otherwise seem educated on the issue seem pretty convinced that can't be what happened to them.
Good luck with that! Their anti-fraud systems will fuck you 99% of the time.
