I’ve come across a Disney+ Email scam that you should be aware of that is pretty interesting as this is the first Disney+ scam email that I have come across.
Let’s start the email that you get:
This email by scam standards is pretty good. But I will note the following. For starters, it never mentions you by name. That’s because this email is emailed out to thousands of people hoping that someone will take the bait. Then there’s where this email is sent from:
That’s not a Disney+ email. And as far as I know, they have chat and phone resources for account and billing issues. So that’s a #Fail. Next is this:
That link clearly doesn’t go to a website that is controlled by Disney+. Thus this is clearly a scam and you should delete this email immediately if you get it. But since I work to expose these scams, I’m not going to do that. But to be clear, don’t be me as I am a trained professional.
Clicking that link takes you here:
First you go to a CAPTCHA. But it’s a demo likely “borrowed” from the company. It even says so in the top left. And that’s where you’ll also notice that these losers are using a WordPress site to pull this off. The “W” next to the words “Captcha Demo” are the big giveaway. Once you get past that, you go here:
This is a fake Disney+ login page. I typed a fake email address and password in and I got past this. That could mean that they are trying to capture credentials, or this is just a gateway to their ultimate goal. Either is possible. Next up is this:
They’re clearly trying to steal your credit card details. And they have logic built into this website to make sure that the card number is valid. Thus at the very least, these threat actors are trying to steal your credit card info. At worst, they’re also trying to snatch your login details to Disney+. It would be a shame for these threat actors if I sent this information to Disney+.
Oh wait. I did before posting this.
In any case, this email illustrates why you need to be careful and closely look at anything that hits your inbox as anything could be a scam email that could catch you out.
