Protonmail warning message

[NotMe]

Seems legit as I got the email too. The message also popped up from the phone app which would be quite hard to hack (or so I think).

It didn't pop up for my phone yet I just checked. Yea it seems to be legit from proton support IMO, unfortunately the message says that when you go on your proton account you will be directed to the new updated one to sign in. If you look there's a way to get to the old proton by going to-old.proton.com for the one we are using currently...

I got the same email.  I'll be sticking with the old version for now teck change can freak me out & frustrate me!

@mountaincat9 whats the difference is it a new app?

 

[mountaincat9]

@Ayyy7393 I don't know about app's I think it's just going to be how we navigate within Proton.

[EasyMoneySnip3r]

LockandLoad is a real UGL ster@id 

Source , the ones who are mimicking them are scammers . I would love to see the menu because I've dealt with The Real LockandLoad b4 . They are Pretty well known on body building forums.

I’ve never dealt with the real, so I assumed it’s a scam.

Hello, I’d love to be approved to view this warning/message. I try to make my OPSEC as best as possible.  Thanks, Hay

@gaz17 What exactly do you mean by "approved to view this warning/message" eh?

I'm sure happy that this scam seems to have died out. That being said it's still always a very good idea to double check the email address that any payment info comes from to be sure it exactly matches your vendor's email.

Always better to be safe than sorry. You don't want to be the first person scammed if they return.

My proton was hacked a year ago longer 2 .
A very child like email was sent out ,
Reading the email you know it was not me .
But IV asked and it's common with proton mail

I know this is an old thread, but what you said here @2earls is an unfortunate rookie lesson I recently had to learn. All it takes is one letter to be off in an email address, a bit of complacency and then… poof!! There goes your hard earned $$$ down the shitter… if anyone wants more info feel free to DM me.
