The hyperlink takes you to a website that is a non-secure copy of the Amazon login page. There is no https: in the address bar, and the fonts appear smaller. My email address was correct.

It's alarming that you know that. Do not click on the links in these things. At the very least, your click-through validated your email address, making it more valuable than a non-validated address when sold-on to the next spammer in the line. At worst, these phishes can be used to drive traffic to viruses.

Instead, either look at the email in plaintext (non-HTML) view to verify that the link points to where it says, or hover the pointer over the link and see whether it shows you the actual destination of the link in the status bar at the bottom of the window. If your mailer supports neither of these safety features, uninstall it and get a better one.
