QuestionHow do I know if the Cash App email address is legitimate?This answer was written by one of our trained team of researchers who validated it for accuracy and comprehensiveness.wikiHow Staff EditorStaff AnswerThe first thing you could do is to check the email address. Don’t just trust the display name, as scammers often use familiar names to trick you. Click on the sender's name to reveal the full email address. If the address looks jumbled, full of random numbers and letters, or has typos like "CashApp" being spelled as "CahsApp", it’s likely a scam. Then, pay attention to their tone and content of their message. Scammers often create a false sense of urgency and they might claim you must act immediately or face going to jail. Legitimate organizations, including Cash App or even the IRS, don’t operate this way. The IRS, for example, will send you letters rather than calling or emailing with threats. Finally, look for inconsistencies in branding. Scammers might include logos or names that seem real at first glance but are poorly formatted or misspelled. Trust your instincts—if something feels off, it’s better to double-check than to act hastily. If you’re ever unsure, contact Cash App directly through their official website or app to verify the email’s authenticity.
