Yesterday I received an email from DIRECTV.. Everything in the from address looks right and it came to my email address that I only use for specific accounts, Directv being one of them...BUT SOMETHING LOOKS / SMELLS FISHY.. There were no links or anything to click on in the email. Anyone else who subscribes to the NFL Sunday Ticket package from Directv get this email??? Ironic that I am cancelling the NFL package this year anyway because of cost / politics..

Direct TV is now ATT. Email should be showing ATT and not Direct TV! Scam!

I also got this same email giving us a free year of NFL Sunday ticket. It says it's a reward for being loyal fans. Received the same email last year and we enjoyed the NFL Sunday ticket all season at no charge. Enjoy the upcoming season.

Details of this recent changeover has been on Google news as of yesterday. I did not read the long article as I am not a consumer.

I received that email, too. I just checked with AT&T and it is legitimate. It is a thank you for being a loyal customer.

I just read last week about the selling off of Direct TV although the actual transaction sounds complicated in regards to the new owners. I just thought it funny that one reason for the sale was the losses AT&T has incurred for many reasons, one being customer service! What an understatement that is!!!!

In regards to the sale, having been a loyal customer for close to, what, 25 years, it can't get much worse so bring on the New ownership!!????

Oh, I did not get that offer but then again I never had Sunday ticket in the first place.

When I get the monthly email billing notice for my Wi-Fi hotspot account

"AT&T Account Management • update@emaildl.att-mail.com"
