I am guessing no, but does anyone know from experience?

For example, on eBay, they sell one year access for around $20... Not sure if this is:
*Foreign accounts where it is that cheap in the foreign markets,
*Perk accounts that are "free" that the owner wants to sell (e.g. T-mobile customers get Netflix for free),
*Stolen/hacked accounts, or
*Accounts purchased with stolen/hacked credit cards.

If they are legitimate (e.g. potential scenario one and two from OP), it's saving lots of money: ~$20 vs ~$120 per year.

$100 over the course of a year is not a lot of money. Buy one less coffee every fortnight, that's the amount we're talking about here.

Certainly not enough of a savings to consider something that sounds so shady.

Yeah but there's no way to make money off that, so it's probably a scam

Another option is that Netflix lets multiple people watch at the same time, so an owner might be subletting it so pay less.

That's great, until they change their password three weeks after the purchase date and you have no way to appeal it to eBay because they technically gave you Netflix access and there's no way for either party to prove their argument one way or another.
