Today (Jun 01 2022), I received an email entitled “Eve Spectrum | Your Balance Payment is due” from
“Confirm your Spectrum (payment reminder) preorder@evedevices.com” with a reply address of a.sirotenko@makebecool.com.
The email was asking me to pay for a Spectrum 4K that I didn’t order (or pre-order).
When I clicked the “Pay Balance” button, my V order was displayed with the original balance that was already paid in early September 2021.
Anyone get a similar email?
Was there a loss of some transaction records?

I received the same email, since I never ordered a monitor from EVE I took it to be a phishing email and deleted it, l then logged on to the my account page to make sure there was no order for a monitor
I also got the same email. I too am awaiting fulfillment of an EVE tablet, and I didn’t order a monitor. Starting to think everyone with an unfulfilled order was sent the same email, whether they ordered a Spectrum monitor or not.
Got the same email. Strange enough, the email headers look legit, and it links to what I think is the Eve cart and not a phishing payment page.
If the Eve tech team doesn’t run Azure with the ‘evet1’ domain, you might want to take a look at your data security and any potential leaks. (Though it sounds like theirs - T1 was their first product?)
If this was legitimate from Eve, perhaps might be good to have some explanation about why the reply-to goes to makebecool.com instead of someone from Eve.
Thanks for the feedback so far and I apologize for the misunderstanding that this error may have caused.
Please ignore these e-mails as they are being sent out by mistake.
I’ve escalated this and have been told a code change that went live yesterday sent out these emails in error. We are working to roll back those changes and investigating what went wrong with the deployment and what can be changed to prevent this type of error from happening in the future.
Thanks! Even having been amongst the first to order the eve 4k, and then the 4k glossy, my order total approaches $1k; it’s a little spooky to hear more about payment and deeply reassuring that you’re already dealing with the issue. Best of luck!
