Hello!

I recently built a store on Shopify. And I received mail from an individual claiming he works for Shopify. The mail said I must take a comprehensive assessment to address technical issues. For this purpose, he said he has assigned a dedicated agent to resolve these concerns. This mail was sent by the Shopify Team.

I would like to know if this is genuine and if I should move forward with this. I am doubtful as I have received similar messages from a few individuals in my Shopify inbox.

Looking forward to your reply. Thank you!
