Plex reveals new VPN business www.MySafeVPN.com
Plex has been used as a media platform for a long time now with users mainly accessing content they’ve got saved on a local media server. However, with the recent change in US privacy bills, UK privacy laws and more, it is now more difficult to fill these media servers with the content that users want to enjoy.
Plex media server has now released a new service called www.MySafeVPN.com . This service will help users stay anonymous on the internet so they can download what they want, view what they want, browse where they want, without anyone looking over their shoulder. Internet access and media access can both now be completely anonymous using the new Plex VPN service which can be purchased at MySafeVPN.com .
Prices are currently on a discounted rate for today in order to allow users to get a chance to try the product. If you are interested, go to www.MySafeVPN.com and purchase your subscription today for just $9.99 . The team will help get you aligned with the service and you will be setup within minutes.
Do you have questions about our new service? Well because we wanted to make a big impact on the market, we stepped up our customer service from DAY 1. You can reach us via phone call OR SMS at +1-877-745-1560 . Get in touch with us today and we’ll answer all of your questions!
Was just about to post about this. Here’s a screenshot of the email itself:!
Edit, never mind the screenshot, it’s copy/pasted in the post above. I’m tired.
This is absolutely not a Plex affiliated service or offering. If anything, it suggests that mysafevpn.com is super sketchy and we would recommend using almost any other VPN service with your Plex Media Server.
Hey everyone. This is not us! We were also taken by surprise as many Plex employees received the same email, myself included. We’re seeing very similar emails going out from the same outfit to former Boxee users as well. We are investigating and reporting them to their service and mail providers, but believe this could be related to the 2015 forums breach.
I think the email shares the name only of an actual service called mysafevpn… links all point to fake URL’s, mailchimp list is myvpnsafe not mysafevpn.
I’d probably say this is a deliver-ability/open test, Mailchimp does delivery and open tracking etc, so probably whittling down emails from the prior breach to those active…
Hoo boy. I’m usually savvy about phishing and such, but I got snookered on this one. I clicked on the link. Crap. I’ve been looking to upgrade my computer security the last few days because Congress has decided to screw us all so corporations can make even more money. The good ol’ United Dollars of America. I feel less and less safe because of Congress. And this phishing outfit is taking advantage.
