That's the sign your Netflix account has been compromised. It's unfortunately quite a well known thing.

 

the best thing you can do is to contact Netflix who should be able to guide you through exactly what to do.

I'm not sure that's 100% correct, Netflix would need to update your Netflix account and unlink it from your Sky account, then you would be able to relink your Sky account to a Netflix account. Sky don't have any control over a persons Netflix account, all that happens when you link a Sky account with a Netflix account is that it tells Netflix that Sky are taking over the billing do the account which stops Netflix charging you for it.

Same thing happened to me, I rang Sky and they cleared the Netflix account that was on my stream box and I was able to sign in.
