Phishing Attempt?

[anne611]

Hello, I received an email from Ashit Kailash Gawai (Agawai@adobe.com) with the subject line: Attention! Adobe Scattered Licenses.

The body says: Hi Team, I trust you are doing well, and I hope you remember me from my previous emails. I am Ashit Kailash, your Adobe POC . While I was doing a periodic sanity check of your account, I noticed a few users have separate individual accounts that are not part of your org-wide account with us. We as account managers do a periodic sanity check and inform you about these individual licenses and recommend that they should be merged into the team for better management of licenses and have a single bill for all licenses. Should I share the approval link to consolidate these licenses?

Is this an authorized Adobe email? I'm assuming it's phishing

If it's truly an @adobe.com account then it should be legit, but this does sound odd.

Do you have an Enterprise license by any chance? If so, contact Adobe's Enterprise Support and ask for more details about this.

Thanks, I have Pro licenses but not Enterprise licenses.

it does sound odd but it's probably legitimate.

Hi Team, this is a legitimate email sent.

Hello, I received an email from this same person. Did you ever find out whether this was phishing or not?

be cautious.  even though the op's email appeared legitimate and was probably legitimate that doesn't guarantee your's is too.

you could start an email reply and carefully inspect to mailto address.

Hello, I too received an email but from - palsoni@adobe.com - it was essentially the same thing. I have in turn sent two emails to - phishing@adobe.com - asking for clarification but in typical Adobe fashion I have not heard anything. They are useless and we are on our own.
