Actually, given the prevalence of the style of e-mail phishing you got regarding the Amazon account, I would think it was just a coincidence. Regardless, I'd say that you were a target of identity theft, not a victim because it doesn't sound like they got any of your information. Do you use the same user-id/e-mail between Amazon and DPReview?

BTW: I'm currently editing a book on the subject of protecting yourself from identity theft.
