Hey guys. I'm curious if any of you have gotten this email over the last couple of weeks. This is maybe the fifth time I've received it. It doesn't look at all legit, and there are typos which makes me think it's a scam. It has the WWE logo at the bottom, but it's so vague. That being said, this email address I'm getting these sent to has only been used for WWE shop purchases. I have a different email for my official account/Network account. I'm just curious if anyone else has gotten this and been ballsy enough to check the link and risk a Trojan to test if it's real or not. And if it's not legit, I guess consider this a warning to not click it.  |

It’s because you’re the admin and hold the ban bat

The WWE never wants to hear from us- has to be a scam.

It looks similar(ish) to the Fan Council links I receive. But I've been participating since they started doing it. The ONLY thing that makes me question it is, the wording they used... "WWE is looking to added to the WWE Fan Council". In my time using this, I've never seen them use such poor grammar. Plus every time you fill a survey out, you become eligible for a 50 dollar WWE shop gift-card. If this was WWE trying to entice you, you'd think they would have mentioned that.
Here's a copy and paste from the last one I got...
Not sure if I helped or wasted everyone's time. I take pleasure in both, so I'm good regardless.

Looks FAKE to me. Also, what was the email address who sent it to you?

I got it now too. Bad grammar and all. And as I said, I'm already part of the fan council. So it seems even more fishy to me.

There's a fan council? I imagine it's like the jedi council.

I got it again today and they had fixed their grammar. So I clicked on it, but it didn’t look like a typical WWE survey, so I moved along. |

Good way to know is if they refer to you by your name, or your email address.
Apple for example, has told me over the phone that any email from them directly will always refer to me by first name, because I’ve gotten a LOT of phoney Apple emails.
So if it was like “Hi email@email.com,” It’s very, very likely fake.
