Discussion topic: Scam or real email from Sky?

This message was authored by: Fedup+email · ‎05 Apr 2024

I received this email from Sky Admin services:

Dear Sky Customer,

"Starting from April 5th, 2024, All Sky account customers are required to validate their account. To retain your Sky account. Please follow the link below to update your Sky account.

(removed)

Failure to update their account, will be marked as spam, and within 48 hours will no longer be able to log in via their email addresses due to recent news terms of service upgrades.

Update so you can use your email address to sign into your Sky account online and enjoy our free apps.

Is this real? A scam?

Thanks

J

@Fedup+email

It's a (fairly frequent) scam. There is no Email update.

why is it slipping through to my e mail box and not going straight to spam?

@jimbo67 Are you marking it as spam?

Scammers use multiple fake email addresses it would be impossible for Yahoo to identify them all as spam.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.
