@PMB1944  It's not Sky's fault it will be down to weak passwords or the user clicking on suspect social media links.

 

You need to ensure that all passwords are secure, and not easy to guess, don't ever click on links offering items at reduced prices as many are scam links designed to obtain such things as your netflix login.

You can setup 2FA within netflix that will send a code to your email whenever anyone tries to access your netflix account outside of any devices you currently have.  

 

As it's happened before the issue is cleary down to users not doing enough to secure their accounts.
