We're here to help clear things up, @albjerryg!

As our helpful ACE @tonydi has stated, that email is a scam and is most certainly not from AT&T.

There are several signs that could point to a fake email:

• Makes odd claims about your bill. Strange alerts might be that a bill is ready, an account needs to be verified, or a payment needs to be confirmed. These emails often include a link to sign in to your account. Don’t click on the link.
• Asks for personal or account info.
• Claims a high balance is due. The email may also make threats that your account will be suspended if you don’t pay the high balance.
• Doesn’t include an account number. When we email you about your AT&T bill, we'll include either several digits or your full account number on it.
• Links to non-AT&T websites. Hover over the links in the email to see the true destination website. A malicious site will try to mimic the look of an AT&T website. However, if you pay close attention, you’ll see it usually has a different format. For example, the link might look like https://[non-att.com domain]/[random text]/[random text.html]. Links will take you to a malware payload website, which changes often to get around blocking. AT&T isn’t affiliated with these links. These are dangerous websites.
• Includes attachments. AT&T bills don't include attachments. Fake attachments will be in .zip format and may have names that start with ATT_Payment.

If you think an email is malicious, you can report it by following these steps:

1. Review the email carefully. Don’t click any links or download any attachments. 
2. Report the email, using one of these options:
   • On currently.com: Select the Spam button in the toolbar above the message. This will also remove the email from your inbox.
   • In an email program: Forward the email to AT&T at abuse@att.net. When possible, include the full email header to help us identify the origins of the email.
3. Delete the email, if it hasn’t already been removed from your inbox.
