Wouldnt your bank just refund you anyway?

Probably, but some banks can be a right pain in the arse and make life difficult. Then you'd need to get a new bank card. I'd rather just  try and prevent it to start with.

13k not all of which are Amazon, out of how many Amazon customers? Several hundred million I'd expect. Not wishing to tempt fate but I'm going to take my chances.

You're right, the odds are tiny. But Ive broken a mirror or two recently and knowing my luck, they'll have hacked xbox, amazon and porn accounts.

Just changed my password but I have no email notification from Amazon in regards to security issues.

Not bought anything recently but I have a £25 voucher for Asda and money for Xmas. Thought about putting it towards a Kindle. I did have one that packed up so will look to see how much they are direct.

Exactly. If it's showing up in the DM but not in any of the specialist press, it doesn't sound that likely. If its just 13k accounts from some random guy on twitter, it sounds more like some successful phishing.
