Getting spam messages

My shop manager is starting to get spam messages appearing to come from yourselves. For example:

 

From: Your Square Loan is being processed <messages@squaremktg.com>
Sent: 13 June 2021 23:51
To: Monica Fowler (County Shop Mgr) <shop email address>
Subject: Your capital has been approved and is being processed

 

Obviously, we have NOT applied for a loan. And I would guess that 'squaremktg.com' is not one of your domains. 

 

Is there anything YOU can do to alleviate these or is it just the way of the world now?

Hi @alansh, thank you so much for bringing this to our attention.

 

It does sounds like this email was not sent by Square. It would be great if you could forward it to spoof@squareup.com so that the appropriate team can investigate and take any necessary. Our team are working hard to mitigate these types of emails.
