MSI Warns of Scam Support E-Mails

MSI has released a warning over scam emails that have been sent to content creators pretending to be from the official MSI offering a deal with products for review.

MSI’s Statement

We extend our heartfelt thanks to global fans and communities for your love and support for MSI and MSI products. As a leading gaming brand, MSI has been devoted to providing players with the best gaming experience and service. However, the recent occurrence of unauthorized emails to content creators and valued followers has caught our attention. Please be advised that MSI Staffs will have this domain name @msi.com when sending out official emails. We have received fraud email reports from various content creators on YouTube. Here is an example of authentic MSI Staff’s email address: juandelacruz@msi.com.

Fraud like this happens all the time and more often than not if you stay vigilant you can notice the signs. Two key signs in the email above that hint towards it being a scam are that the email address isn’t the official @msi.com as well as the language and vocabulary being poor and unprofessional.

If you are a content creator stay vigilant and keep up to date with what to look out for in scams.
