Scammers keep coming up with new scams, and this time they are targeting fans of the streaming provider Disney+. Criminals are on the hunt for your sensitive data again! Recently, Disney+ customers in particular have been the target of phishing attacks.
The subject of the email is: “Please update your information”. This informs customers that their subscription has been suspended because the bank rejected the last debit. The email asks customers to update their billing information using a link below to avoid losing their “benefits.”
Disney+: Customers must be vigilant
But be careful: this email is a trap! The dubious sender address reveals that it is phishing. If you click on the link, the criminals try to get to the customers’ sensitive data. The consumer advice center warns urgently: Move such emails to the spam folder without a response!
