Change Amazon passwords if you haven't recently

My account was compromised and got a ridiculous bill
There were at least 50 instances running in many regions using the largest server available to get in linux form. Not sure how this happened but I got it solved before it got much worse. Note that this all started 5 days ago, imagine if I did not catch this faster.
Change your password and make sure it is strong.
