Official notices from Charter / Spectrum are sent via mail to the address tied to the account. They do not use popups.

Unless something changed very recently.
Call Spectrum and ask. Use the phone number on your bill, not on the pop-up. |

I'd recommend downloading Malwarebytes, and use the free version to scan your computer. If it detects malware popups its usually good at removing them.
Also check your extensions/addons on your browsers to see if there is anything unusual that as been added. |

That warning has not popped up for days since the last time I replied here, and I still visit here daily.

I've never once had that popup either and I am also a Rectum...er I mean Spectrum customer. However, I did get a DMCA from them when my trial VPN ran out as I was downloading The Mandalorian. Oops. Lesson learned. To be fair I called them Rectum, but they have the best internet I've ever used - other companies here offer overpriced dogshit AKA crap speed, unreliable connection and super expensive. 17 down and 1 up for over $70 a month. Rectum is way cheaper, more stable and much faster. So when they sent the DMCA shit to my email, I listened. You don't fuck around when you live in a small town and your options for good affordable internet is extremely limited...to one company.
I concur, I think you're getting phished. Get Malwarebytes, run a scan.

Always use a VPN when downloading or uploading stuff. I use NordVPN and i never had any problems. They got great offers. I bought a 24 Month Sub for around 70 bucks during Christmas and thats a much cheaper price to pay than what you would have to pay if you got their Lawyers on your ass. It looks like the warning happens to certain Regions while others didnt have that issue but that does not preclude the possibility that these People couldnt get problems in the future if they dont use a VPN.
