New scam targeting Netflix and iTunes users in the Lower Mainland

(by Kenny Mason)  A scam is targeting both Netflix and iTunes users. The fake bill being sent to customers uses a few features to look real.

“They’ve got the right lingo, they’ve got the right logos, it does look very legit. That, of course, is a concern. They are so easy to set up for the tech-savvy scammer these days that it takes no time at all and, of course, costs nothing,” says Evan Kelly with the Better Business Bureau.

Here is an example of this latest scam.

He says the BBB is advancing along with the scammers, and there is something you can do to check if your bill is bogus.

“If you have any issues or any concerns that it might be real or it might be fake, certainly get in contact with iTunes or Netflix.”

He warns there are similar scams going around related to PayPal.

Kelly says you should contact the BBB if you see any kind of suspicious activity.
