Spam mail?

[Anonymous]

I'm sorry, I really don't know where to post this. I tried looking for a contact email account but I ended up here. 

I received an email from no-reply@autodeskcommunications.com stating the following. The adress seems fishy and I don't remember ordering anything. Can you confirm it's an authentic Autodesk email address please? 

Thank you!

Hi d.scarnati,

Thank you for reaching out on this issue.

This email is 100% legitimate.

no-reply@autodeskcommunications.com is the email that we use.

I recieved an email from the same adress (autodesk@autodeskcommunications.com) saying my 3DS Max license was not valid. Never used 3DS Max.

Our office manager got the same message this morning. I'd be most curious to know the story behind it.

The only option was to click to download a pic.  So I don't think this is a legitimate email.

One of my users received it as well.

Same... am I going to be a wizard?

Some of our users received the same email this morning. It's obviously spam, but I want to know if the address is legitimate before I block it in our Spam filter.

I also got this email. No attachments, no links to follow, no requests for personal info... if it's a phish, it's a bad one. Someone at Autodesk having a bit of fun? I'm tempted to reply... "Does Hogwarts have grad programs?"
