Online Threat Alerts (OTA)

There is a "Hulu Refund" email scam being sent by scammers to potential victims. Therefore, if you have received a legit-looking email that appears to have been sent by Hulu saying you are eligible for a refund, do not follow the instructions in it, just delete it. The instructions in the fake email may ask you to click a link that goes to a fake and phishing Hulu website that steals account credentials, personal and financial information. Or, you may be asked to call a bogus Hulu customer support telephone number set up by the scammers behind the fake email.

I have contacted Hulu and confirmed that the email is a scam.

what happens if you submitted the request for refund through that link? All they asked for is my phone number and an identifier from hulu. Can they access your financial information?

They sent me that same letter on June 24. THEN they sent a reminder about the previous email they sent on Aug 3. I also goggled if @hulumail was legit and some Twitter account "Hulu Support" said it was a legitimate email!?

It's all too fishy, so don't click anything.

Thank God, when I got it I did nothing. There seem to be so many scams that seem legit I don’t respond until I do my research.

I got this too and unfortunately fell for it. When we tried to put in the info it asked for, it said it was incorrect. What should we do now? These people really make me mad.

Anything happen? I fell for it today. Same happened where it said my information was incorrect.
It was my 13 yr old son who warned me it might be fake and now I’m frantically trying to figure out what to do.

I'm glad you posted about this. I received the email but I had just had my account changed without my authorization so I had no reason to suspect it was a scam. FWIW they never answered the phone number. Thankfully I tend towards suspicious and was trying to check up on it when I found your post.
