Porsche drivers council email. Scam?
Did anyone else receive this email today? It just seems a bit scammy to me, especially with the 'gemailserver.com' address. Maybe it's just me but Porsche's 'official' emails always look a bit more polished.
Just thought I'd ask and see if anyone else received it and also found it odd.

Haha I'm not playing guinea pig! I forwarded to a friend smarter than me and he said that Qualtrics company looks legit. I don't know, the email just looked fishy to me. Maybe they were in charge of creating that whole email and not Porsche which is why it feels different. I don't think I'd participate even if it was legitimate, I just had an odd feeling about it.

Of course, you just gave the world your personal invitation code with your posting of the message. If it is legit, others may have beaten you to it by now! You might want to take it down or blur out that part of it.

I seriously doubt there is anything nefarious going on with that email. It's all proper English, proper spelling, close enough proper grammar, and no Nigerian prince involved.

Yea sorry busy afternoon... Ah no biggie if someone took it for me, I wasn't planning on it anyhow. Good if it's legit, my radar just thought it was fishy.

Ha no worries. I’m actually going to PM you about the Austin F1 GP in a second if you don’t mind. We’re thinking of going for the first time this year.
