New SKY scam

[Chalkdust]

We’ve just avoided a Sky scam - they knew last 4 digits of my card plus monthly payment so they have access to Sky dBase somehow, and very professional emails - the hook is 40% off your monthly payment but the sting is extra offer £25 pay now for two free months. Brilliant. The giveaway is the web page 'Sky-pays.is-great.net' which is a known scammer vehicle

i tried to report this thru SKY but their case-based options don't allow - sigh 

Don't get caught 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hi @Chalkdust   I would be on heightened alert. The fact that they knew that could mean that your account has been compromised already.
