Webmail account verification

I have several Webmail accounts.  I recently received a couple of emails titled "You Have New Ϲox Documents" from Ϲox Communications<nlusso@cox.net> to my primary account which said I am not logged into my email account and asked me to sign in to Cox Webmail and verify all my account details.  It also said that if I am not signed in it will go ahead and delete my account.

I went to the Communications History page but did not see these emails.  I also tried to chat with a live agent of Cox customer service and, as expected, after going round and round in their confusing website got nowhere.

It sounds like phishing, anyway.  Any comments?

    It sounds like an email from Cox but just to verify that try @CoxHelp on X AKA Twitter.

    Sounds like phishing to me. A official Cox email would never come from a Cox.net email.

        Cox.com. Cox.net is reserved for Residential email. If you google it, it belongs to some customer named Nikki.
