I've got a JSON REST API. There is a handshake that will give you a token that is valid for 15 minutes. All calls you do within those 15 minutes should work ok. After the 15 minutes I am returning an error object (includes code, message, success = false) but I was also wondering what HTTP Error Code I should return? And will using a HTTP error code mess up certain clients? (HTML5, iPhone, Android). What is considered best practice in this scenario?
Think about what happens in a web app. You go to say a banking site. If not auth'd it will send you to the log in page. Then you log in and you are good to go for a time. Then it expires and the cycle repeats.
invalid_tokenThe access token provided is expired, revoked, malformed, orinvalid for other reasons. The resource SHOULD respond withthe HTTP 401 (Unauthorized) status code. The client MAYrequest a new access token and retry the protected resourcerequest.
Have been enjoying the Turkish Netflix for some time now, especially after managing to add Wise card using VPN, but randomly this month have had an email saying the account is on hold and the same when I go to Netflix. Payment was due to come out today, but when I look there's now no payment method listed on the acc. Wise card still active and has been on the acc since March 23.
Anyone else having issues? Is this a random glitch or wondering if Netflix are doing some kind of sweep wiping payment methods off Turkish acc's in the hopes people can't/won't re-add payment and will have to use their correct country or something??
I could possibly could do it at the time because my payment (gift cards) had expired and the UI had the pop up "add a payment method" screen. I'd you're going to end up using gift cards anyway it may be worth waiting until it expires and seeing if the pop up comes.
I am still rather Sus on this. It appears they are ID'ing overseas account holders, possibly with the intention of killing off those accounts (or they could just start doing the shared account checking - I'd cancel straight away ;) ). So I'd be a little hesitant to add another NZ card using a txt service. They can easily tell the international cards from local ones (they could easily just block them all from working if they wanted - prob a local market reason they don't.)
Tried loading Westpac CC via browser but this requires txt verification to a Turkish mobile.
1. Download PingMe app.
2. Added $2.69 credit ( in USD.. must have been 1.5usd)
3. Tried about 8 times last night to send a txt to the temporary Turkish number but Netflix kept saying "unavailable at this time" or similar. I kept refreshing the PingMe number too and eventually got a message asking to try later.
4. Tried again this morning while turning on Surf shark VPN and it worked first time.
I guess you could perpetually use gift cards but either you buy one once a month (hassle) or buy a whole lot in advance (risk Netflix shutting down your account rendering a bunch of gift cards useless)
PingMe is less "cheapies" than the way I used. Plus the last time I used PingMe was a bit of a rigmarole and it took me a few goes to get a phone number which worked. Also PingMe is a Russian company so I feel conflicted to use them even though I'm illegally bypassing Netflx's rules haha
@Trenchard: Just an update I went a whole month on gift card no cancellations.
I did my second gift card yesterday (200TRY) and billing is until March 28th, which is 2 days after the turkey price hike starting on March 26th.
So if you are still getting the "(insert name), we just added a movie you might like" emails from Netflix, safe to assume there are no issues with the account?
People that got the notification, do you still keep getting Netflix general notifications for new content added?
Also received email today saying account on hold, my ASB card has been removed, try to add asb/wise again unsuccessful. Bought netflix gift card on turgames.com and redeemed now showing my next renew is a month from now on but still can't watch it due to account on hold. There are also people on reddit with a lot of credit balance but account on hold.
I have read you're geolocked for 30 days to Turkey, but I haven't checked my own one yet. And one more note - don't know if it matters but I was connected to Turkey on the VPN when I initiated the chat and entered my CC details.
I followed the above steps to the tee and did the live chat. I was connected to Turkey via ShufShark VPN as well. The guy "Dilip" asked for my Turkey phone number. He didn't accept the already registered number saying it wasn't from Turkey but NZ. He asked me if I was ever in Turkey. I lied and said yes in 2020 when I signed up but since then moved to NZ. He said that was account was flagged as using the service outside the registered country & then proceeded to tell me off for paying through an account that wasn't NZ since I currently live here. He gave me 2 options, cancel the account and restart with NZ Payment or close the chat and try to fool them again and then be banned from Netflix! So am now paying full NZ Price :(

Why would someone use a streaming service like Netflix to scam you? The primary purpose is to get access to your financial information. Because millions use this streaming platform, Netflix has become a target-rich environment for cybercriminals.
Scammers use techniques like smishing, a social engineering method, to trick users with fake text messages. These messages can appear legitimate and even use spoofed phone numbers. You may also receive a phishing email to deceive you into revealing private information.
Numerous scams can be used to impersonate Netflix representatives, company correspondences, and even your financial institutions. All of these nefarious scams include a tried-and-true way to trick Netflix customers into revealing sensitive info, typically through phishing (deceptive emails) or smishing (deceptive text messages).
Some of these techniques are difficult to spot at first glance, which is why many people fall prey to them. You should be aware of a range of scams, from unsolicited email scams to text message scams promising a gift card or other enticing offers.
Below are some of the most popular Netflix scams. Be aware that this is not an exhaustive list, as scammers constantly develop new ways to steal your data. The best action is to stay abreast of trending scams.
This scam promises hopeful job seekers easy money. Scammers may provide you with an application via a fake website that asks for your personally identifiable information, such as your contact info and Social Security Number, as well as financial account information.
If you receive an email asking for a few minutes of your time in return for a gift card, proceed with caution. These scams encourage you to click on a phishing link that takes you to a fake Netflix page. Your entries are then recorded for the scammers, and unfortunately, there is no gift card.
This is a savvy email message that claims there has been an issue with your membership account information. It may even ask for your current payment data to avoid fraud. If you click the button to restart your membership, you are sent to a fake Netflix website in hopes that you enter your valid credentials.
With this scam, users receive a phishing email or smishing text asking them to fill out a fake Netflix survey. In return, the promise is a free Netflix subscription. Of course, the fake Netflix survey page is really a phishing link that asks for personal and financial details.
These stealthy scammers use phishing to target Netflix customers and breach your smart home network. If you have a smart TV, Roku, or Fire Stick, you may notice unusual pop-up ads blocking your access to Netflix. The ads offer false reports of errors with your Netflix app that encourage you to call a fake customer support number. On the other end of that line is a scammer who attempts to steal your credit or debit card information.
The aim is to trick you into paying an activation fee in order to continue streaming. In some cases, the scammer instructs you to allow them remote access in order to resolve the issue. Once you click any malicious links, malware can download onto your device, allowing the scammer access to your sensitive information.
Using the same password without ever updating it gives hackers more opportunities to crack it. Changing your passwords more frequently helps prevent identity theft and unauthorized account access. Use a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols for the strongest password security.
Two-factor authentication (2FA) requires two forms of identification to access an account, which gives you more security. 2FA keeps your Netflix account safer from online predators trying to scam you.
Think of identity theft protection as another layer of security. These services can notify you when your personal information is at risk or has been breached. Essentially, your service provider may use phishing protection features to alert you to dangerous Netflix scams before you fall for them. As a bonus, providers may also monitor your credit for unusual activity.
+Why do scammers want Netflix account information?Scammers want Netflix account information so that they can steal your identity or access your financial accounts. If they get your personally identifiable information, the criminals may be able to access your most private data.
If you get a suspicious email or text from Netflix, you should not open it or click on any links. You should forward the message to phis...@netflix.com. If you have reservations, trust your instincts. You can always contact Netflix to verify communications.
