Wonder how to get music on Spotify for free? Beware of the newest scam going around: How To Get Free Spotify Premium Account for iPhone aka Spotify Premium Free Trial.
A new WhatsApp phishing trap created to steal your Spotify credentials has been revealed this week. Many users of the popular messaging app reported receiving a WhatApp message containing a URL for a one-year free subscription to Spotify Premium, the ad-free version of the popular music streaming service.
If you click the link, you are directed to a page showcasing the Spotify logo. The branding is complete, also featuring the Spotify's font as well as its green and black color scheme.
Once you get to that page, they were asked several questions before being asked to log into the platform. The trick here is, the cybercriminals collecting all this data will sell all the accounts on the black market.
The scam is perpetrating across many countries, requiring the page to be recreated in many different languages, as seen below - a screenshot from Spain, while the scam was reported by the national Police there.
However, criminals use translation apps and tools that provide imprecise translations, which makes the scam somehow easier to spot.
