Spearphishing or legitimate email?
Posted: Thu Feb 20, 2014 2:37 pm
I just got and email that was obstinsivley from Sapien, but from the domain list-manage.com and mcdlv.net. It indicated that my email address had been "flagged by Vertical Response as invalid" (whatever that means).
Please advise as to the legitimacy of this email. I am pretty sure it's bogus, but the formatting and layout is very similar to the Sapien emails I get from time to time. The full text of the email is below. Some parts are redacted as a precaution.

Hello,
We noted that the email address associated with your SAPIEN account has been flagged by Vertical Response as invalid - meaning emails to this account from Vertical Response bounce. We have recently instituted a policy of deactivating accounts with invalid emails, however I note that you have one or more registered products. Please let me know if your email address is valid and you receive this email.
Thank you!
