Hi, Requester18383!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Securing your account and protecting yourself from spam, phishing, and hacking attempts is becoming increasingly challenging in the digital world. 

 

Although it is possible that this message was sent in error, someone may be trying to access potential accounts with Best Buy, leading to password reset emails being generated. If you do not have an account with Best Buy, this message should be deleted. Here are some additional resources on protecting your online accounts, as well as protecting yourself and your loved ones from cybercrime and fraud scams.

 

Hope this helps!
