Hi @john at poulton 

Thanks for your post!

Earlier yesterday, we sent out an email that, for some, appeared blank and without a subject. This email was supposed to contain an important update from our CEO. We’ve identified the error and have resent the email to those affected.

I hope this helps.

The above is a screen shot of an e mail I’ve received from no-reply@con.sonos.com. It looks like a phishing e mail. If I’m correct does Sonos have an e mail address to report it to?

I've received the same email and also thought that it looks suspicious. I didn't download the images though.

I wouldn’t open anything from @con.sonos.com. While I have marketing stuff turned off on my account, as I recall, everything would come from just @sonos.com. My guess is your suspicions are correct.

Oh, sorry, missed the question part. No, to my knowledge, Sonos doesn’t have a ‘security’ email to forward it to. I’d just throw it away. I suspect a moderator will take note of your post, and either respond here, and/or pass it along, but I think you have done the right thing.

Note, however, there was a post this morning from the CEO. You can access it by clicking on the light green link at the top of this page, or go to 

 if you trust me to post a valid link. ;)

I also received the same email as the original poster from no-reply@con.sonos.com yesterday. I marked it as spam and deleted it.

Interestingly overnight I received another email purporting to be from the CEO as mentioned above. It contains the update letter mentioned in the body of the email but it too came from no-reply@con.sonos.com so I’m puzzled as to whether it is legit or not?

Yes I got this email - Sonos can’t even send an email out correctly. They really need to get their act together.

Thanks Corry P. That clears it up and also confirms that no-reply@con.sonos.com is a legitimate Sonos e mail address.
