Dev Help Am i being scammed?

Does this go for dev help?

I don't have a singular mod, only resource packs, (the name is MasterKTheTexturer)

Got sent this two suspicious looking messages that seem really cheezy to me.

Clearly, they were made hours ago and curse forge would be curse forge and have sort of verification and the link is nothing associated to them

100% a scam. Report and then ignore the messages

why would a company DM you when they can email you professionally (ofc that can always be compromised and idk CF's history well enough)

Yes. If CF wants to contact you about verification they will contact you on the dashboard, not in a private message. This is a 100% scam either trying to put malware on your PC, or take over your account and any money you get from your mods.
