Is this message appearing when you login in (so it can be dismissed) or is this via an email that you have been sent ?

Re: SCAM

When I log in to sky.com.

 

It does not affect me accessing email and spoke to sky who are not aware of this so they told me to reset my password which I have done and still happening so not really helpful.

 

It is not happening if I log in here

Odd. Haven't seen this before either. Is this an email message? Or a text message? Try clearing your browser cache, or try logging in to sky.com using your brower's incognito/privacy mode to see if that stops it.

I really don't think this is a scam. I can't understand quite when you are receiving this message, but unless it's asking you to provide your credentials it's not likely to be malicious.

Does it appear as an on screen pop-up, then? If not, how are you getting it? It does seem pointless as nothing apparently happens after the 'verification code' appears.

Re: SCAM

Baffled. I've never come across it before, either. Just a thought - do you still see it if you log in here first, then go to Sky.com for your email?
