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.
