Peace be with you, Proton Community, 🌹

I was trying to find out which search engine Lumo uses in the background. To do this, I used the official contact form here: https://proton.me/support/contact?topic=lumo.

Unfortunately, I later realized that the official site lists “protonmail.zendesk”, not “protonme.zendesk”. The domain “protonme.zendesk” looks suspicious, and many sites online report it as a phishing attempt.

I have already taken security precautions on my end, but I want to be absolutely sure before I report this domain as malicious. Has anyone else seen this? Please let me know if you think this is phishing. And i hope you can answer my question about the search engine 😁

Thanks for the help.

    Props to you for double and triple checking! If I was to put money on it, I would say its fine, and just a good chance that Proton haven’t updated their website/articles yet.

    If you mean you contacted Proton four days ago in regards to this, then yeah good move to verify. Would be very interested to hear their response here if you’re willing to share when it happens.

    Also, just to clarify, there were more emails outside of the one you screenshotted? And these replies had links? Were these replies making sense and actually answering questions?

      Hey, it was a long chat. This picture is just an example.

      The answers were actually really good and made for perfect sense. They told me, “No, we don’t use Google or Bing.” Sometimes the replies were very short and simple, like: “No, we don’t use them either.”

      Regarding the links, they were always formatted like this: Proton Mail (link to proton.me/mail/home) From: support@protonme.zendesk.com

      But I didn’t click on them.

      I would be really sad if this turned out to be a fake email because I actually liked the answers. I love Mojeek. But this “me” vs. “mail” thing makes me really worry. I hope I’m wrong. Now I can just wait for Protons answer.
