I also have a Hulu skill and a Netflix skill, and I cannot figure out how to delete them. I tried using them once way back when, and of course they were both a total fail. It aggravates me that the Alexa app is such a pile of rubbish. Seriously Bezos, hire some decent programmers. My guess is that popular skills like Netflix and Hulu will be the type homophone hackers will try to mimic due to their popularity. I think if you don't give Alexa access to financial information you will be better protected, but they can still phish for your personal information. I have never allowed ordering through Alexa, and never will. However, with Bezos Bozos (his stupid programmers) no telling what all Amazon account information might be available through Alexa.
