Scamming - Fraud
The fake "Netflix Membership Renewal" email below, which claims that there was a problem renewing the recipients' membership, is a scam. Online users who click on the links in the fake email message will be taken to spam or malicious websites where they will be tricked into buying counterfeit products, fake or malicious software, or even taken to phishing websites that steal online account credentials, financial and personal information. Therefore, recipients of the Netflix scam are asked to delete it and should not follow the instructions in it.

I got this message. It starts out HI Dear. That irritates me. I am NOT a f*g, to be called a Dear. I am a male. If that was addressed to a female, that is verrrryyy rude, to call an unknown female Dear. Put yourself in my position. Call me on the phone.Also, I do NOT have Netflix, my wife(female) does.
