I've gotten one of those and I'm not on Netflix. I've also been getting them for amazon, apple, and anything else you can think of. They have been coming more often lately.

That's not spam, it's called phishing. And if it didn't work, they wouldn't do it.

That's why you never click on the link. Log in to the website in question on your own and if there's a problem you'll know.

I suggest using using prepaid credit cards to put money in PayPal account. This way you regular credit card information does not need to be used on your account.
