Last Warning email

I have had an email stating the below

 

ACTION REQURIED : BILL UPGRADE MESSAGES

 

The attached PDF has some stuff about webmail clients 

Is this a real email? it doesnt seem legit to me, its from  'virginservice262@gmail.com'

Any ideas?

Thanks

Jason

    Spelling mistakes like ACTION REQURIED often indicate a scam

  • Plus, of course, would Virgin Media, supposedly a communication company, be sending out emails from a @gmail.com address?

    No, of course it’s not legit!

  • Hi Jason788

    Welcome to the Community Forums.

    We can confirm that this is not a legitimate email from us, nor a genuine email address of ours. As you have opened the PDF attached in the email, we would strongly recommend running a malware scanner on all of your devices. You can also forward the email to phishing@virginmedia.com, please then delete the email afterward. 

    We also have some information available here on what to do with phishing/scam emails.
