(Solon, OH) -- Police in Ohio are warning Netflix customers of an ongoing scam. The Solon Police Department posted an email where a user was sent a phishing email saying their account was put on hold after having trouble with their current billing information.
The email goes on to ask users to click on a link to update their payment method. Police say do not click on the link and reach out to Netflix outside of that e-mail. Social media users pointed out the email contained an international number, some punctual errors and was written with the salutation "Hi Dear."
On Neftlix's website it reminds users never to enter login or financial information after following a link in an email or text message.
