is this UB email legit?

[NeBlis]

I got this email from UB today. I dont play much anymore but have won the sunday 200 over there 2x and have won alot on that site before. Not sure if that has anything to do with it but this is the first real offer they have sent me since my online playing slowed down.

the email :

LOL tourney is less than 3 weeks away, how will emailing UB support help.

ps i'd be very careful , this does look scammy to me. I bet they try to send you some virus in an email back or something, or use this to trace your IP or something. very fishy IMHO

Looks pretty fake... why would they have you respond to that random email instead of an actual UB address? Definitely just email support and ask them, don't respond to the other address until you have confirmation.

Looks like a scam to me.
