Hi there @AxisofAction

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. It does not look like it came from our server. Can you please forward that email to spoof@squareup.com so we can investigate? Also, welcome to the Seller Community! 😁

Thanks Ellie for providing the Square email address for issues such as this.  (I noticed that if you hover your mouse over the link, you'll see a strange domain name - not anything close to Square.)

Best JK, 😎

We are being scammed I got a similar email in March and ignored it. I now have not had a transfer in 6 months. They have over $5000 of my money. They still let me use the service but now can't get my money. Impossible to talk to someone. WTF?
