If you’ve gotten an email that looks to be from Netflix recently, police are urging customers to double check them before offering up any personal information.  In a Facebook post, police shared a screenshot of a phishing email that aims to steal your information. The email claims the user’s account is on hold and that Netflix is having “trouble with your current billing information.” The email provides a link to update their payment method. Police say the links could be a way to install malware, harmful viruses, onto your computer. Comments on Facebook point out that although the email looks legitimate at first glance, it contains an international phone number and strange punctuation.
