meropeSent from `noreply⊙mkc`
-
meropeIf it's a spoof, it's a very good one - no obvious fake sender field

sech1I would log in to Kraken from a safe PC/location and check the KYC/privacy settings for any suspicious stuff
-
sech1And contact Kraken support before answering an e-mail
-
sech1I didn't get such e-mail
-
meropeYeah, just did - I'm about to open a support ticket
-
meropeObviously I'd never send any personal info via email (especially to a noreply email of a marketing department), but I wanted to check if there's something funky going on
-
sech1scammers can use this information to social engineer support
-
sech1and possibly take control over your account
-
sech1Did you check e-mail headers?
-
meropeYep - maybe my eyes are getting crossed, but I can't seem to find anything weird in the headers
-
sech1"Received-SPF: pass" there?
-
meropeThat's what's weird about it
-
sech1dkim=pass ?
-
meropeyes to both
-
sech1they have a link to "support ticket" in the e-mail, is it fake domain there or actual kraken.com?
-
merope
-
sech1still weird that they ask to reply to "noreply" e-mail
-
meropeyep
-
meropeJust talked to support - apparently it's legit
-
meropeBut "unfortunately it was sent from a noreply address"
-
meropeI hope they're not already starting to go down the drain, now that they've changed CEO
-
monerobull[m]Is the change already final?
-
monerobull[m]They said the CEO stays until they have a replacement for the role of the guy that will become ceo
-
meropeNo idea
-
BusyBoredom[m]I doubt anything will change. It looks like they're just trying to get away from Jesse's colorful past comments and improve their IPO readyness.
