Give another AI the facts it needs—not just “what should I do?”
I need practical help with a Netflix issue. The policy question: My account got hacked and the profile language switched to Arabic or English. Useful context I found: Not a Netflix breach — almost always credential stuffing using passwords leaked from other sites. My specific situation: [Describe what happened, including dates and messages shown] The outcome I want: [Refund, verification, appeal, account recovery, explanation, etc.] Important constraints: [Country, deadline, booking/account status, documents already submitted, budget, or other limits] Please: 1. Identify any missing facts you need before reaching a conclusion. 2. Separate platform policy, local law, and your own inference. 3. Give me the safest next steps in priority order. 4. Use current official sources where possible and flag anything that may have changed. 5. Draft a concise message I can paste to customer support. 6. Do not invent account access, guarantees, refund rights, or legal conclusions.
Why this policy exists
Because so many people reuse the same password across sites, attackers run leaked login/password lists against Netflix in bulk ("credential stuffing"); even a low success rate yields many hijacked accounts at scale. Compromised accounts often get accessed from abroad (hence the language switch) or resold cheaply on dark-web marketplaces. Change your password immediately and use the "log out of all devices" option under Account > Security.
