Is this from Cox?

Is this from Cox?

Email received 8/25/2023 from Cox Team<danserz@cox.net>   says “Dear Valid User, The Classic Version of Mailbox will be replaced by our new version. So, it's time to verify, before you lose your email access. Thank you for using Cox©”

 

It says to log into url https://adriannahewings0.wixsite.com/my-site.

That doesn’t look like a COX url.  Is this from Cox?

    Look at the sender name. It's a phishing email from a COX email address that has been compromised, and more than likely is now suspended. Do NOT login to the site, they will steal your credentials, and use YOUR email account to send phishing emails. 

    Forward as an attachment to PHISHINGREPORT@cox.net

    You're a first-time forum user that just posted an email you believe is fake and it contains a link.  The email is fake.  Edit your post and remove the link so that someone else doesn't accidentally click it.  Or maybe you're the scammer and you want people to click the link.  You're post has been flagged.
