I'm not sure who takes care of emails in the Trezor, but a similar thing happened with several other services, at least those who said so publicly, CoinTelegraph, WalletConnect, Token Terminal, and De.Fi.
It is a hack of the MailerLite service, an infected computer of an employee (who's trying to execute an infected software) with accesses to sensitive URLs within MailerLite and its third parties.

Last two weeks, similar emails were flying around for trust wallet users, and I don't think there was any news by the trust wallet developers to warn their customers of such a threat, or they probably were not aware of such phishing mail to their customers.
This is really a great update for those using Trezor wallets, and it really would prevent some people from falling victim. That was also how a thread was created last week regarding the phishing email that TrustWallet users are receiving.
Scammers are really upgrading their strategies all the time, and it is also necessary for us all to be alert. Don't respond to emails that you are not expecting; even if you have to, make sure that the information on the mail is accurate and coming from the right source.

I believe this emails from scammers was prompted by the information of users that was compromised on the 17th of this month which is the hack of Trazor third party.
@Learn bitcoin was right on what he said below.
Well it's good to let people know about this current situation, I'm not a trazor user but I'm always concern in knowing all this kind of event because in less than no time I will purchasing a hardware wallet and will not want to face this kind of risk using them.

Even though they have regained access to their support center, the hacker still has a chance to use email spoofing and send emails to those Trezor users and try various hacking attempts like sending malware and asking them to download, or asking them to use new web portal which could be phishing and numerous more methods they may try. There are still a few percentage of people who might believe those emails and try those things.

Don't trust all information you received through email. Because if something is big, it will be announced on the website, social media accounts like X, blog and emails.
We must check information in emails with other channels and see is the information in email matches with other sources. If not, it is like the email is a phishing one.
Because you receive the email, you can check your email address with https://haveibeenpwned.com/
If Trezor allows you to change your email address, and if yours was pwned, changing that email address to a new one is helpful.

Social media platforms like X is no longer to be trusted these days; even discord. X and Discord feels like the easiest to be compromised these days and it takes just 1 link from a compromise account to screw a lot of users not to mention the influx of scammers on X that appears like the real thing or organization only to be scammers with phishing URLs. I almost feel for one yesterday even though I'm very security conscious. It's a miracle these days not to fall into any of these scams.
The best thing is always to understand context: For instance, why would a hardware wallet provider send updates over an email or X post? Scammers getting very smart, we have to get 2x smarter to stay ahead

There is no doubt this is troubling time because I also received an email, but good thing happen I not click on this and deleted because through social media I already have few warnings from my social media friends about this all now reading here mean things are not going well sometime back I already lost my skrill account because I have done one mistake and click on one suspicious link which create problems for me and I also lost my $5000 in this account which is now not refundable as skrill blocked my account.
I really appreciate we have this problem here and now many can check emails before clicking links which are creating problems and members are losing their hard-earned money quickly.

The best to do as at now is to ensure we make an accurate verification on mails received in claim of the target they have at hand, it could be any other wallet, exchange or platform that could be attacked through their physhing mails, the more reason why we keep emphasizing in that we shouldn't click on any unsolicited link, especially the ones not coming from the official paltforms

I got the email 4 hours ago:
I easily knew it was fake from the URL link:
I looked for recent Trezor update but I did not see anything like that. Although, I was not expecting it because I knew it was fake from the link.
I am not a Trezor user but I subscribed with an email to their newsletter or something in the past that caused it. This is how this company easily leaking customers email to scammers.
Although, the site was not working when I clicked on it but it is very important for people to avoid the link and not click on it at all.

Trezor users are also receiving fake emails, Trezor has already tweeted about this and asked all users to stay safe. These activities of scammers have increased in recent times and they are trying to trap Trezor users. Trezor officials have not released any information on whether the scammers were successful in this attempt. So be safe, now if you get any wallet related email you should verify the official information before clicking on any link.
