The communications and media watchdog has issued an alert about fake emails targeting Spotify Premium account users.

The Australian Communications and Media Authority says the emails carry the subject line: ‘Your Spotify Premium payment isn’t working’.

ACMA says the email will ask recipients to ‘update your billing’, with a link taking you to a fake sign-in page almost identical to the real Spotify website.

ACMA says the fake website is extremely convincing and is a reminder to be vigilant about keeping your personal information safe and secure

It says the email should be deleted immediately
