Has anyone received an email to become an Adobe advisor? Is this legitimate?

This topic has been closed for replies.

Correct answer Dov Isaacs

You can agree with @Peru Bob all you want. I have no personal knowledge of any e-mail campaign “to become an Adobe advisor” (in other words, I cannot vouch for that in any way nor did I say I could) but I do know that mail.adobe.com is a valid domain (actually a subdomain) used by Adobe for legitimate outgoing e-mail, typically for e-mail blasts with our various lists. Thus, if all the rest of the e-mail headers are correct, it is coming from Adobe.

So how do I follow-up with any of this?
I have made the mistake of using my employee email for all of this as it was actually sent through my own personal adobe account...yet still, I can't figure out how to get any further, if it is indeed a real thing!

Looking at the email on that screen capture (@mail.adobe.com) I would say that it is a scam.

Adobe email addresses are @ adobe.com (without the space between@ and a).

Au contraire, mail.adobe.com is part of the Adobe internet domain. Such addresses are used for external e-mail list mailings such as this. If the e-mail actually came from that e-mail address, it is not a scam!

Thank you for clarifying that.

I did - I took the survey - came back as "extremely qualified" but then have never heard back.

I've contacted support a few times and they were of no help and had no idea what I was talking about.

I replied to the original email and also never heard back - so I'm not exactly sure what is going on with it?

Here is my screenshot of the email I got in October.

I'd love to learn more about this

I've gotten emails about the MVP and ACP options but I've never gotten one that refers to an "Advisor".

And the MVP/ACP programs usually require a history of answering questions in these forums. I don't see much of that in your profile. I'm going to take a wild guess and say it's a scam.
