Is the email address @info.telus.com legit?

Does anyone, including Telus, know if the email address @info.telus.com is legit???

    While FuzzyLogic is correct that email spoofing is a very real issue, the address itself of [email protected] actually is legitimate and from us. We always however, do recommend checking in with us to verify the authenticity of anything you may receive.

  • After extensive search and using Ai, any address ending in @info.telus.com is phishing.   This is NOT a legit telus email.  Thanks telus for not providing that information.

      I came across this post and wanted to clarify that this is incorrect. The email suffix @info.telus.com is legitimate and typically used for eBill notifications but with the caveat that email addresses can be spoofed so it's prudent you double-check the sender info and log into your account through our official website.

      On any email you get you can go into the foundation information of a email to see where it came from.  Out of scope for telus tech support but here's a link to an article that explains how to do that. No endorsed or supported by telus.  I am a retired telus internet tech. support.google.com

        Thank you for the information. I do believe the email I received was spoofed as it was offering something for free ~$10. To get it I would have to clicked a link. Which if it really was telus, wouldn't it be linked to my account rather than the dreaded email link.

        Thanks much.

    That's an incomplete email address. It's certainly part of a possible valid Telus email address as it ends with telus.com.
