Linking from embedded url in email?
 

Here's my scenario:

I emailed myself a USPS tracking number that I copied and pasted into my email browser while using my laptop. I use hotmail.

By accident the following url was embedded/attached to the tracking number:

https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/...eID=XXXXXXXXXX

I use the hotmail app for my android smartphone.

I opened up my hotmail app on my smartphone and went to the email I sent myself with the usps tracking number.

I saw that it was a link and thought I was going to refer me to www.usps.com and track the package.

It directed me to the Amazon login page.

I immediately closed the webpage.

Do you think the hotmail app passes my email address when it connected to Amazon?

I have never logged into my banned amazon account on my smartphone, nor have I ever even tried to login to Amazon on my smartphone.

Do you think I'm in any trouble?

Thanks in advance

No there would be no correlation between Hotmail and Amazon. You are safe. Chill! :amen:
