Scam emails?

Kerenne37 — Sat, 15 Feb 2025 09:12:06 GMT

Is the following a scam?

I have been receiving emails from “New Team” for some time saying my talktalk.net email is going to be deactivated. Today I received one saying this will happen today!

Clicking the sender email addresses shows me various names @talktalk.net but the whole thing looks like a scam. There is a link for validation of the email to prevent it being deactivated which I have ignored.

Hi,

It's a scam.

If you hover over the senders details whilst its a TalkTalk one, its one that has been compromised by the owner clicking on a link in a similar mail.

Whatever you do, do not click on any links.

TalkTalk have requested that spam mail be reported to them.

Thank you.
