Cybercriminals are sending out thousands of fake Netflix emails to their potential victims. The fake emails are phishing scams with links to fake Netflix websites. The fake websites will ask visitors to sign-in with their Netflix account credentials, but any attempts to sign-in will result in the visitors' credentials being sent to the same cybercriminals.
