Disney Plus Account Scam: Is It a Scam?
Yes, this is a scam. Do not click any links or provide personal information.
Scammers send emails claiming your Disney+ subscription has been suspended or your payment failed, urging you to update your billing information. The phishing link captures your Disney+ login and credit card details.
How This Scam Works
You receive an email with Disney+ branding stating your account has been suspended due to a billing issue. The email urges you to click a link to update your payment method. The fake site asks for your Disney+ email and password, then requests credit card details to 'reactivate' your account. Scammers then sell the stolen Disney+ credentials online and use your credit card for fraudulent purchases.
Red Flags to Watch For
- Sender email is not from disneyplus.com or disney.com
- Threats of permanent account deletion
- Link URL does not point to disneyplus.com
- Asks for full credit card details through an email link
- Poor formatting compared to real Disney+ emails
