    Wait, so are they injecting the number into the actual legit support website, or does this only show up in the google search results as the wrong number, but following the link directs you to the legit site? The article is kinda unclear on which it is.

      My understanding is they buy sponsored ads, the link goes to a fake Netflix support site, and you call their phone number.
