Beware,Taste of Secret Sex Netflix subscribers. While you're binging Stranger Things, BoJack Horseman, or any of the Air Budfilms, you're also the target of a new email scam.
SEE ALSO: Don't fall for this Netflix phishing scamFlagged 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 lastNetflix 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.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.
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.
Images of Netflix shows like The Crownare also employed in the scam, lending it an air of authenticity. But, nope, there's nothing actually wrong with your account.
According to Deadline, more than 100 million subscribers have been targeted by the scam thus far; there's no word as to how those emails were obtained.
In a statement to Mashable, Netflix said:
We take the security of our members' accounts seriously and Netflix employs numerous proactive measures to detect fraudulent activity to keep the Netflix service and our members' accounts secure. Unfortunately, scams are common on the internet and target popular brands such as Netflix and other companies with large customer bases to lure users into giving out personal information.
Members who want to learn more about how to keep their personal information safe against malicious online activity can go to netflix.com/security or contact Customer Service directly.
If you need even more advice, or know a less-than-savvy user who could use the pointers, Netflix's own help page has some keen recommendations for protecting your account but, really, we're pretty much at the point where nothing is real and no one can be trusted.
Just like in your favorite Netflix thriller!
Full circle, people.
