Etsybot scams / email phishing

Looks like a spam bot is trying to gather email addresses from sellers. No way is this legit when I have zero orders from that person or in general right now.

Lots of scams hitting new sellers on Etsy. Some are falling for them.

there has been lots of that for the past month. Mark as spam and do not reply.

These fools are not letting up, and it's a big problem here. If you haven't already, please see the Etsy Announcement at the top of the Forum, re: Scams.  For a short time, we had a Message in our Shop Dashboard which linked to this Announcement, but Etsy removed it.  There really should be a prominent Banner there; many Sellers are not seeing the Announcement, and I can't imagine how many were hacked, those who don't come to the Forums.  Thank You for reporting this, and I'm glad you didn't click.  Most likely no one is going to click on the unsafe link though.  Stay safe.

This one had no links and only really asked for an email. I guess they then send links were any Etsy safeguards can't filter it.

Please remove that link while there is still time!

I didn't click but when they mention "scam" and post a link I imagine the worst!
