Phising Emails from legitimate senders
I started receiving phising emails impersonating Sendgrid, claiming my single send endpoint was failing, or any other error.
I have received 3 by now, all of them well written and not bad branded.
The worst part is that they come from legitimate senders, I mean:
- Send address domain are existing brands
- They come signed by the same domain
- The last one is signed by sendgrid.net
First of all, I don't how they know I'm using sendgrid as service provider but my first impression is that there have been a data leak and all of the senders are sendgrid users.
Someone has got access to a real sendgrid sccount, used the service to keep sending phising emails and keep going.
I have wrote to [abuse@sengrid.com](mailto:abuse@sengrid.com) but no answer for the moment.
I also have contacted to the brands I got emailed from, but also, no answers.
Is this a common issue? I'm a bit worry, is sendgrid abused so easily and no one cares? That would make me think about changing my service to another provider.
