7-Eleven Email Scam Account Accessed from New Device
7-Eleven Email Scam Account Accessed from New Device

I got a 7-Eleven account email with the subject "7 Eleven Email Scam Account Accessed from New Device" from noreply@7-eleven.com. I am assuming the email is a scam because I have never signed up with 7-eleven. And, the name used in the email is not mine.

The email instructed me to click the link in it to reset my 7-11 account password. The link took me to a page that displayed the following:

"faultstring": "Spike arrest violation. Allowed rate : MessageRate{messagesPerPeriod=4, periodInMicroseconds=60000000, maxBurstMessageCount=1.0}"

Can anyone tell me if the email is legit or 7-Eleven scam?
