Has anyone else received emails like this? Are they legit?

Had 3 at home, and several in our junk mail here... all promptly deleted as spam

I've not had one and I have 3 GAFE domains...

 

Where do the links resolve to if you save the email and look at the html in notepad?

We got a couple this morning, i checked the whois info https://who.is/whois/googletechteam.co.uk and domain was registered yesterday. i've added the email domain to our block list.

 

the link goes to googleloginassist.info also registered yesterday which i've added to the block list just in case

Yup, looks like crap, what email address is used, and where does the link point to?

I think there maybe something wrong with your keyboard!

Judging purely on the fact they failed to spell inconvenience correctly... I'm going to say it's a phish.

Looks spam, if in doubt its always worth checking message headers for emails you receive, you can see where they have come from and generally work out the bad ones from there.

The domain name it come from says it all to me!

If it looks dodgy, it probably is!

Thanks for the replies. Email has now been deleted and domain added to our block lists.
