https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/nation-now/2018/02/01/police-warn-netflix-users-email-scam/1089109001/According to the post, the suspicious emails tell Netflix customers that their account has been deactivated because the company “could not validate billing information.”
It then prompts people to click a link to enter their information, including credit card numbers.
Authorities say this is not a legitimate email from Netflix. Instead, it’s a phishing scam that can lead to compromised identities and accounts if the information is disclosed.
I heard Clark Howard warn of this scam this past Friday. The local radio station WHIO is quite good during commercial breaks of putting out warnings that Clark has been made aware of. There has got to be a way for law enforcement to go after scamers after our money no matter where they live. They are just as bad as any bank robber.
