I've been receiving this email for MONTHS from Adobe. I had my account deleted and I even hit all their unsubscribe links. Is this a real email or spam?

    yes - that is a fake notification email and fake link and fake email address.

     

    You can report to Adobe by sending the email (as an attachment) to phishing@adobe.com

    So I'm bombarded with daily Adobe emails and there is no UNSUBSCRIBE anywhere in the emails. I go to my account and I don't see anywhere to unsubscribe. I talk to the chat guy for about 20 minutes and he doesn't know and has to refer me to a senior specialist. We're talking about simply unsubscribing from Adobe emails. 

    Does anyone know where I can go to unsubscribe from Adobe emails? Please!

    Please copy and paste the email you are getting. The first post in this message showed someone was getting dangerous phishing messages, pretending to be from Adobe, but actually not.

    It's Phishing. By hitting unsubscribe, you have confirmed you exist, and made more messages more likely. If you EVER respond, you will be infected with malware. It's a very serious problem. Please send files to phishing@adobe.com. They can't stop the messages but they can sometimes close down the infected sites which are being used to send them.

      Is this a fake link?

      This looks like spam. The email address is mail@info.adobesysstems.com.

        I've moved this from the poorly named Community Help forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Flash Player forum so that proper help can be offered.
