Hello @Eurogoldmuenzen

This is Amelia at PageFly - Shopify Advanced Page Builder app.

This email has some characteristics of spam, but it’s not definitive. Here’s how to analyze it:

R

ed flags:

  • Urgency and scare tactics: The email emphasizes urgency and mentions potential store closure for non-compliance. This pressure is a common tactic in spam emails.
  • Generic greeting: “Dear Shopify Store Owner” instead of your actual name suggests a mass email.
  • Vague issue: The email mentions a “critical issue” with the robots.txt file but doesn’t specify the problem.

Hoping my solution helps you solve your problem.

Best regards,

Amelia | PageFly
