Email Scam Targets Netflix Users
Return To ArticleFlagged late last week by Mailguard, the new email scam comes in a phishing email that’s been meticulously designed to look like it came straight from Netflix itself, using the company logo and everything. It’s definitely more sophisticated than the last Netflix email phishing attempt.
The gist of the scam: The email informs the subscriber their account has been suspended because there’s been trouble with the billing on their account. All you have to do is sign back in, update your credit card information, and restart your account.
All the screens look pretty convincing, especially if you’re the sort that doesn’t pay much attention to the corresponding URLs of a page you’re on, but that’s the big telltale sign.
