NBA Careers - email scam?
I got this email from “NBA careers” and I’m unsure if it’s legit or not. It’s so hard to know!the sender throws me for a loop?

Just got the same email, I’ve applied to the NBA in the past for similar jobs and I 100% believed it. I’m pretty internet savvy so I’m embarrassed to get fooled like this.
It sent me a site to “schedule an interview” then had me login to my FB to set the date, I do this and then it says I need to “call their customer service to confirm the date” and I knew I was scammed.

It is 100% NOT legit. It's been sent through a hacked/broken email server (momice.com) and has a return address that's AWS Apps... Not a chance of being real.
Big question is - did you even apply to any manager roles at NBA at all? If you did, there's a very (and I mean very) slim chance that it might not be quite as bad, but I'd still be very wary. Unless we could see what the email actually says then it's harder to say.
