Beware: Disney+ Impersonation Email Leads to Phishing Scam

Scammers are targeting consumers with a fake email promoting a 98% discount on subscriptions to the Disney+ streaming service. 

The email, sent from the address ‘DisneyPlus@costumercontact.com’, includes an image from 'The Avengers' to appear more convincing. 

Clicking on the link in the email takes users to a phishing website, where they are prompted to create an account by entering personal information. 

The website features a countdown clock to increase the pressure on users to act quickly. 

The URLs are linked to a ‘digital gaming’ company called Skill Games ApS based in Belgium. 

Online reviews of the websites accuse them of taking unauthorized payments and not delivering items won in games.

For more in-depth information on this Disney+ phishing scam, please refer to the original source of the article from Which? dated 22 February 2023.
