Account suspension threat
A message warns your account will be disabled, suspended, or deleted unless you 'verify' now.
Why it matters
The threat drives you to a fake login page; losing access feels urgent, so you act without checking.
Example only - do not act on it
Example only: Your account will be disabled - verify now to keep it: [fake-link removed]
Why scammers use this
Fear of losing an account makes people hand over passwords and codes quickly.
What to do
- Don't tap the link - open the official app or type the address yourself.
- Preview the real destination (long-press) before trusting any link.
- If you opened it, don't enter anything and close the page.
What not to do
- Don't trust a link because the page looks official.
- Don't enter logins or card details on a page reached from a message.
- Don't rely on the visible link text - it can hide the real destination.
How to verify safely
Don't trust the link - reach the company yourself via its official app or a web address you type. If the claim is real, you'll see it there.
