i didn't follow the 1st post steps. i registered my kindle and added my credit card in the same account - and added a US address. i've been buying books without a problem. in fact i just set up another kindle for my cousin the same way.

if you are afraid they will restrict your home country settings in your current account, you can deregister your current account from your kindle, and set it up with a new account. make sure the new account has a US address.

hope this works. enjoy your kindle 

Ignore the email and don't reply to them. Treat as you never saw the email. Go low profile for a while without buying books.

Amazon randomly check you by your IP address. Buy a e-voucher and send to yourself, load it, erase any info of you staying outside US and buy using a US VPN.

i've been using my card on amazon for kindle since 2011. so far so good. bought 4 books last month 

Hsbc Visa. I put a random Starbucks address as my home address

Bought from kindle and from PC. I put my credit card as one click.

I don't know what the deal between Amazon with the publishers. Amazon is not supposed to sell those ebooks and their kindle officially in Malaysia, so they come out this system checking people buying it. Free books from Project Gutenberg maybe ok, but others maybe got copyright issues.

I read in other forum people there suggesting this. Once caught they go low profile then continue again after a while, never hear any account is blocked or deleted so far. Using VPN and gift voucher make it harder for them to track you by IP address. Whenever I buy books I use this method, nothing happen so far, just to be safe. Some buy direct for years yet never kena, some buy one time then receive the email, depend on luck one.

Hmmm looks like I should keep my profile low for a while, but my mistake was I had been trying to buy free books a few days ago on Amazon after receiving the e-mail from them, just to test to see if I could still buy e-books. Means I went high profile before going low profile again. Not sure if my going low profile this time would help...
