SAN ANTONIO ā Free Netflix for a year may sound good, but that text message offer with the link is a trick to steal your personal information, the Better Business Bureau warns.
The need to chill at home created a prime-time opportunity for a tempting text message that making the rounds.
Clicking on the link will not lead to free Netflix, but it may cost you because it takes you to a fake page that asks for your sensitive information.
The real Netflix page warns of fake tests and emails, saying it will never ask for credit or debit card numbers, bank account information or your password.
If you do click on the link, Netflix recommends you change your password to something unique to that account.
