Hi @Shawyors 

There are a lot of scams,  especially one that contacts you directly. 

For the alleged issue, SPF does not have any connection to "find and buy of your products". It is connected to email settings.

You still can check https://easydmarc.com/tools/spf-lookup and see if there is any issue with this.

One of the store owners today got an email with a similar scam, "robots.txt" is not good and wanted money to fix the issue, there is non existing.

Stay safe

Thank you...it really is strange and seems to be a scam. So glad I did not reply to it

Hi @Shawyors   It does appear to be very sketchy to me so it’s best left unreplied to. Also, just as a rule of thumb,  Shopify does not contact people with Gmail accounts under normal circumstances.
