MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- If you want to Netflix and chill, you might want to know about this scam first.

That email prompts subscribers to update their payment information to avoid an interruption in service.

A cybersecurity company says users were then directed to what appeared to be an official login page.

Netflix has long warned customers about phishing scams.
