Potential phishing?

Crando · ‎21-04-2020

news@o2-email.co.uk - is this a legit O2 email? It was in my Spam folder which I found rather strange.

"Hello,

Your O2 Extra is now ready, all that's left to do is activate it. You can do that here. Or via the link in My O2. You've got 28 days to activate it.

If you've got questions or issues go to our FAQs.

Thanks

O2"

Yes, it's genuine.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.

Pixel 7a (O2 & Lyca), One Plus 6 (Sfr), iPhone 12 Pro Max (Vodafone)

My Extra email also went into my spam folder simply because Outlook handled it as potentially harmful because of the link.
