I haven't gotten an email like that, maybe yet.. I would suspect an email from 'The FastM Team' not 'The Fastmail Team' as well as an address ending in 'fastmail.com' and not 'fastmailteam.com' as being some sort of phishing attempt. Emails from Fastmail have a green checkmark icon, this is only visible in the web UI or the app though.
What was the URL of the link in the email? - Bruce |

I suggest not posting links from phishing messages. I have received several of these and they are obviously phishing messages. Look at the full headers and the source.

It's in the 'Actions' drop-down of an email that is opened.
