"your account has been charged"

Hi, I just got an email with the below text.

 

I opened a browser window and logged into my Adobe account, and I see the same in notifications.

 

 

I imagine the phone number is part of the "invitation," so I don't want to call it. 🙂 I can't find an actual Adobe support number to call, though.

 

I'm assuming this a phishing attempt? Can you confirm?

 

(Sorry if this isn't the correct forum. I searched all but didn't find this message, and I didn't see anywhere specific for security questions.)

 

Thanks.

What do you see for your account at https://account.adobe.com/
If you do not have a subscription contact the fraud number for your credit card

I have a month-to-month Creative Cloud subscription + the 5 Adobe stock credits that come with. Those are the only things I'd expect -- and they are the only things showing on my account. 

 

Is there a place to report fraud to Adobe? It looks like they're hoping someone will call that number to cancel the account. The email (below) looks pretty legit, but there are a few typos and things that probably indicate phishing -- and which you might not notice, especially from the notifications if you're in the browser window.
