Amazon has connections with everyone including banks.
Amazon likes to offer a free trial and then after you cancel well before the free trial ends, they continue to charge you month by month.
I had this happen to me a few times. The most recent time I reported my American Express card lost/stolen, that way I would get an entirely different card number/expiration/cvv/ everything. I continued to get charged every month by Amazon.
Turns out banks will continue allowing certain companies like Amazon to continue taking payment even though the original card information you provided was changed and reported lost/stolen. Amazon is so big they can ask for your CC information once and continue to take payment without re-authorization no matter the situation.

Do not use Amazon for anything.
