(KRON) - Multiple Grubhub users have reported receiving scam emails and push notifications Tuesday evening asking recipients to send bitcoin to receive rewards as part of a limited-time holiday promotion. The scam email promises that Grubhub will 10x any bitcoin sent to a wallet address contained i n the email as part of a 'Holiday Crypto Promotion'. A follow up email included recipients names, wished them a happy holidays and urged there are '30 minutes' left in the promotion. The emails were sent from the addresses [email protected] and [email protected]. KRON4 reviewed other official Grubhub promotional emails that come from the same domain (b.grubhub.com) but with a different username. In addition to the emails, some users on X have also reported receiving push alerts on the Grubhub merchant app with a similar, too-good-to-be-true offer, urging users to send bitcoin. KRON4 reviewed transactions associated with the bitcoin wallet account contained in the email. Since 8:42 p.m. (the time of the first email), the wallet has received multiple deposits totaling $4,207.07 as of 11:26 p.m. KRON4 has reached out to Grubhub to ask if the scam email is related to any breach of user data. Earlier this year Grubhub reported a “security incident” that allowed “unauthorized access” to the contact information for an unknown number of customers and drivers. It is not clear if Tuesday's scam email is related to the February incident.
