Scam / spam / hoax

MaxM — Wed, 13 May 2026 14:24:45 GMT

Got an e-mail today from "no-reply@inform.ee.co.uk", addressed to "Hi, We're sorry we have spotted that you have been undercharged...... etc". Immediately raised my suspicions as my formal first name is normally used. Secondly, e-m from EE come from "no-reply@info.ee.co.uk" NOT "no-reply@inform.ee.co.ik". Lastly, it claimed I owed £7 a month for 3 months underpayment of my Netflix Premium sub. (Don't have Premium Netflix, and when I checked my account on my app my last 12 bills were spot-on correct) I was to log in using a link supplied to check my account. So 3 alerts there...I imagine the website is fake and they would just read my username and password and be able to access my account themselves for whatever reason. Beware of no-reply@INFORM.ee.co.uk

You are contradicting yourself making it difficult for us to decide:

So is it 'uk' or 'ik'? If the latter, it is definitely not from EE. Or is it just a typo?

Does it have a link in it that it tells you to click? Don't go there but what was the link?

Report spam emails to EE by forwarding the email to phishing@EE.co.uk .

Then it looks valid. There is another user that has received a similar email : EE Subscription
