HELP ASAP. IS THIS EMAIL LEGITIMATE???!

It is extremely hard to contact customer service directly. I need to make sure this email is a legitimate email address. I received an email today from a recruiter, and the email is info@shopifyinc.us. Does anyone know if this is legitimate??

The email address info@shopifyinc.us is highly suspicious and does not appear to be legitimate. Shopify’s official domain is shopify.com, and legitimate communications from Shopify would typically come from an email address ending in @Shopify_77 .com.

The domain shopifyinc.us is not associated with Shopify, and scammers often create similar-looking domains to impersonate legitimate companies. It is advisable not to respond to the email, click on any links, or provide any personal information.

If you want to verify the legitimacy of the email, you can contact Shopify’s official customer support through their website at www.shopify.com or through their verified support channels.

What is the message you received by this email/

This email address info@shopifyinc.us looks suspicious. Shopify’s official domain is shopify.com not shopifyinc.us, Scammers often use similar looking domains to trick people. Verify in your Shopify account If the email mentions an issue, log in to your Shopify account directly without clicking any links in the email to check.

Yes, now looking at the email on the computer, instead of my phone. It looks suspicious to me.

I think this is the real definition of impersination. Beware of this email info@shopifyinc.us.

Recognizing legitimate Shopify emails

Shopify will only send emails from official domains such as @shopify.com, @email.shopify.com, @em.shopify.com, and @shopify-billpay.melio.com. Emails from public email services such as Gmail, Yahoo, Apple mail, or Hotmail aren’t from Shopify and should be treated as potential phishing attempts.

And domain shopifyinc.us is registered just 3 days ago and does not even have a website, so a scam for sure.

You should also report this email to Shopify, with some more details. check here
