Fraudsters keep sending fake emails that look as though they come directly from Spotify. The fake emails say that your Spotify Premium subscription has been terminated due to an "invalid payment method".

But #watchout!
Psychological pressure is used to persuade recipients to enter their credit and/or debit card details and "update" their payment data. With millions of people worldwide using a Spotify Premium subscription, criminals have a big target area.

L = Never click on links and attachments from unknown persons.
I = Always check the content of e-mails critically.
N = Neutral form of address in a message makes you suspicious.
D = Urgency and time pressure are suspicious.
A = Always check the sender carefully.
