The Grand Rapids (Mich.) Police Department is warning the streaming service’s millions of subscribers of an email phishing scam that’s trying to gather their personal information.
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.
