Ughh, he claims to have been scammed by AWS because their services are having an outage, and I'm missing the point?
This stupid hyperboles need to be shot down. I'm sick and tired of the victim mentality and hyperboles. Every time something inconvenient happens, people scream and shout at the top of their lungs like the world has wronged them.
NO, YOU DID NOT GET SCAMMED BY AMAZON BECAUSE THEY HAVE A SERVICE OUTAGE.
Simple as that. People need to calm down and stop acting like the world owes them something. Unforeseen events happen. Take a breath, no one scammed you. If you have an SLA and contract, follow the steps and process to get reimbursed. Anything more is just worthless bickering and victim mentality complaining.

Many people have pushed for cloud services because they are supposed to be more reliable than setting up a system in a rack in a datacenter. AWS will constantly point to their uptime guarantee, except it isn't a guarantee. It's just a sales tactic that misrepresents the historical uptime of AWS.
The larger point is that if 99.5% is the real expected uptime, it's vastly cheaper to have a solution that is not AWS, even before you factor in the cost savings of learning their security model and completely opaque billing system.
Advertising a product with features it does not have is the classic definition of a scam.
