Netflix is taking action against widespread account sharing in Germany. From now on, the following applies: one household, one Netflix account.

Many customers are currently receiving the message (with the subject "Update your information") that their streaming service use is not possible or restricted. However, as Netflix warns on its website, it is not a message from the company, but from scammers. According to the consumer advice center, a film recommendation can be an indicator that it may be a scam. Netflix will never ask you to send personal information via text message or email.
