Whilst a jailbroken and compromised Kindle could be of concern, I'd see is as being a more targeted attack (for a specific person etc).

Scammers wouldn't go to the trouble of modifying a Kindle to obtain a single person's credentials when they have other avenues for acquiring credentials in bulk with far less time and effort.

I would like to see an option for a full disk wipe, repartition and install though, for peace of mind.
