Does anyone know if Zoom uses journalscene.secondstreetapp.com (Possible Scam/Spam?)

I keep getting emails at work that appear to be from Zoom Media

Subject Line: Action Required User Disable

with the message reading "We've temporarily deactivated your Zoom account.
At this time, you will not be able to invite or join any call/meeting.  Your account will be billable until you verify your email address  office@****.com

 

When I hover over the link it directs to a very long address that starts with http://journalscene.secondstreetapp.com/api/organization_user_email_verifications...

I am 99.9% sure this is spam but I tried to google it nothing comes up.  If it is spam, I would also like to warn others to look out for it.  Does anyone else have any insight into this or seen it before?

    No, they don't. We've seen an uptick in similar emails. If you were to sandbox the URL and follow it through you'll likely end up at a ".RU" site. At least that's what we've seen. Part of the problem is that this is someone sending as Zoom and comes across as legit; that's because Zoom's SPF record is set to a soft fail and allows this to happen.
