Strange Voice Message Fron SkyVIP?

Received an email message purportedly from Sky VIP requesting that I listen to a voice message.

The links did not have any "sky.com " components in them but a request to login to my sky account.

I deleted the message.

Should I report this to Sky as to me it looks like a novel scam message?

@popacatapetal  Any email from  Sky will never ask you to follow links, this is most likley a scam email, mark as spam & delete.

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

Re: Strange Voice Message Fron SkyVIP?

I received the same message. The clue in that it is a scam is when you look who sent it. Mine came from 

 an obscure email address which is obviously not from Sky. I tried to put the actual address in this post but this community group wont allow it.
Always check senders name before answering any email.
