Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
The fake "Netflix Reset Your Information" email below, which claims that the recipient's account information appears to be missing or incorrect, is a scam. Online users who click on the links in the fake email message will be taken to spam or malicious websites where they will be tricked into buying counterfeit products, fake or malicious software, or even taken to phishing websites that steal online account credentials, financial and personal information. Therefore, recipients of the Netflix scam are asked to delete it and should not follow the instructions in it.
