Is this message from Amazon or a phishing scam?

Got this email a few days ago and expanded the From part. Is that a legit Amazon address? When I go to my Amazon account in the Message Center, there is no mention of this. And if someone knows my password, why would they be "ATTEMPTING" to sign-in to my account? Wouldn't they have done so already?
 
Please refer to the last thread about this that you posted...

 
"Click here to deny" is the dead giveaway that it's phishing. If it were real two factor (it is not), whoever is trying to log in is denied anyway because they don't know the code. You don't have to do anything but delete the message and not give the code to anyone.

Kinda good attempt because they are utilizing Amazon cloud for their phishing.
