Netflix users have warned of the new E -mail scam that allows hackers to steal your money – Netflix

Netflix users are warned of a new phishing scam, which allows hackers to steal the victims’ bank details.

The users of the streaming platform are advised to pay attention to an angry scam that seems almost identical with the ordinary Netflix e -mails that even the most technology-Aliterat by us could fall.

During the weekend, users received an email generated with the subject “Let’s address your payment details” rEPORTS Mirror.

Then E -Email seems like a regular automatic response, which suggests that there is a problem with the account that has been blocked due to a payment problem.

E -Emotion is continuing to say that the account will remain blocked until the payment details are updated.

It is written: “Your account is waiting.

“Please update your payment details. We have problems with your current billing information.

“We will try again, but in the meantime you may want to update your payment details.”

To cause emergency, there is also a red banner that writes “update account now”.

The scams included the typical Netflix brand in E -Email, including the iconic red color and the font -and even contains links to what it looks like as an official help page.

However, you are barely more than a click away from scams to be able to harvest your sensitive data, including banking Details or information about the credit card, home addresses and logs.

Those who have fallen victim at the deception by clicking the link are sent to an equally convincing web page.

Here, users are asked to enter the username, password, address and card details, all under the pretext that they will release the blocked account.

In reality, you will be offered to hackers the keys of your vital information.

Some subtle signs that the Email is not authentic include the E -mail address from which it came, because in this case it came from an Emmail iCloud, and the URL of the site that it has linked.

E -Netflix official emails come from the addresses that end in netflix.com.

The streaming service also said that it rarely sends such messages to users, as a spokesman for The News Outlet said: “If you receive an E -mail or a text message (SMS) requesting the E -mail of the Netflix account, the phone, password or payment method, it probably did not come from Netflix.”

Netflix says he will never ask for personal information in a text or an E -mail -and if you are a victim at cyber tricks, you need to change the Netflix password (through the official site or application) and inform your bank.

Jake Moore, a global counselor in the field of cybersecurity at the Cibersurita company ESET, also SAPS Daily Mail that Emmale and persuasive e -mail campaigns have only grown with help artificial intelligence.

He said: “AI technology has now allowed criminal bands to generate phishing campaigns and at several E -mail addresses.

“Cybercriminals have taken advantage of AI to target large numbers and are also able to make authentic-looking authentication pages, easily to deceive users to disclose personal information or account accreditations.”

Another warning sign you have to look for is whether the E -mail requires urgent requirements.

Moore continued: “Like traditional phishing attacks, however, these scams will often try to create an emergency, which causes the recipients to act quickly without checking the origin of the true sender or even without thinking at all.”

He said that another way to check if the E -mail is legitimate is to log in to your account via the application.
