I received an email which is allegedly from Adobe and is really quite good -

[victoriajourneyzing]

how do I report abusive/fake emails to Adobe?  This is a really good imposter, if that's it, and I think Adobe needs to know about it.

Actually the post above is to report spam on these forums.

To report a fake, spam, fishing email (I didn't use the new p.h.ish phraze as it seems that get tagged as a blocked word) that appears to be from Adobe a google search should turn up a link report it.

Sorry my mistake, Adobe have an avoid phishing announcement on the Photoshop forum but not on the Get Started forum for some reason

Thanks to all == there are a number of different ways of doing this and the one for possible fake emails is --  phishing@adobe.com

I did a search on the website but didn't find the info == I suppose it doesn't want to make it too easy...I do hope they'll either confirm that it's a fake email OR a good one, in which case I can outline to them the reasons it seemed fake == it was a VERY good clone....

Mails from Adobe employees come from "adobe.com" domain.

Be careful. This is so easy to fake it isn't even really faking any more. You cannot use the email address to see if it is genuine.

Look into this thread. Adobe's Rebecca_Kelly explains what to do.

I did send the email to the Phishing squad and they confirmed that it's not genuine [BOY it was REALLY quite good!!] and provided more help ===. I actually use SpamSieve which catches a good amount of stuff but this one was quite a good fake...now to alert my Mac using friends
