I don't see why you think his account has been hacked.

One person struggles to assemble furniture because the parts fall over, with two people, one holds the parts while the other joins them together.

People will still have to type 'amazon.com' into google first, right?
the server carries a verifier for each user, which allows it to authenticate the client but which, if compromised, would not allow the attacker to impersonate the client
Any circuit design must contain at least one part which is obsolete, two parts which are unobtainable, and three parts which are still under development.
