Netflix porn hack?
So I went into Netflix on my iPad a few hours ago and I noticed there was a new account entitled "Lol". I had never seen that profile so I clicked on it to see what it was. When I opened it up, there was porn videos instead of shows or movies. It was all in the correct format that Netflix shows would show up in. I did a bit of research and found out the ip and it was from one of my neighbors. How did he do this? Has this happened to anybody else? I deleted the profile and changed my password, but is that enough to stop it for at least a little while?

- simplexion 11y agoThat article is terrible. It doesn't even specify what routers were affected. Even the article it links to doesn't besides saying that D-Link's router reviews on Amazon show they are at fault. This is why I only use routers that support OpenWrt.
- evanboho 11y agoI had this happen on my router. It hijacked the DNS for google-analytics.com and fed in some javascript that, on click, opened ad popups. I was able to solve it by hardcoding the DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and haven't had any other problems.
- nkozyra 11y agoThis seems like a far more specific attack - simulating a Netflix user within the app is completely different than injecting ads arbitrarily at the router-level.
- codezero 11y agoDo you have any pictures or screen captures of this?
- deanstag 11y agoOr video captures ;)

- readme 11y ago>one of my neighbors. How did he do this? It might not even be your neighbor. Could be a virus she has or something. I'd ask your neighbors though, if you think any look like the type that would do this.
- reagency 11y agoWhat type "looks like" that?
- readme 11y agoA neckbeard and a fedora would be a dead giveaway
- luckene 11y agoMy neighbor is very smart with computers and I know for a fact that he is a hacker, don't question it. I have had run ins with him before so I took note of his jp and it matched the up that sent me the Netflix account
- autokad 11y agoare you absolutely certain you weren't phished? how did you know it was your neighbor's IP? Do other people have access to your account? maybe they clicked something they shouldn't have
- bbcbasic 11y agoI'm just paranoid but also back up your HDD and perhaps even do DVD backup of your most important files. If your router is hacked as suggested in a sister thread then possibly it is has managed to modify a download to get a virus on your computer like the CryptoLocker.
- garyfirestorm 11y agoI guess you were about to get "vanned" by the NSA. Unfortunately, they couldn't get you red handed ;)
- mindcrash 11y agoMight not be Netflix, because Netflix does not carry adult content. However, could be a copy of Netflix and your router deliberately set to access this clone whenever you visit netflix.com You might want to check if the IP address of netflix.com changed within your home environment. If it has, go to a neighbour, and either change your password if still possible or call Netflix Support because they could have hijacked your session cookie already -- which basically means "free Netflix account" (for them). Also don't visit other sites (until you get a new router) because they might be rerouted aswell.
- KennethJTom 11y agoI had a problem like this a while ago. Someone made a new account on my mac and it was filled with videos from https://www.fapshows.com https://www.fapshows.com. I don't know even in this day what happened but after I deleted that account I didn't had any problems.

- umeboshi 11y agoCould be worse. Imagine getting locked into a bunch of televangelist content, perhaps from Ted Haggard or Jimmy Swaggart.
