Not that AA is not above using a spammer for marketing activities.

Being locked out of using any of the website controls (read next message, delete the message, etc.) I found very upsetting. Heaven only knows what else is going on within the message. I have sent a copy to my email supplier for further investigation. I have done a full scan of my system and I haven't found anything in my system (yet).
My man, that's not from a scam email. aairlines.bounce.ed10.net can be seen in other AA promotional emails. Looks like the problem is your own browser / computer. That's just the server of a email and marketing company (Zeta Global in this case) that works with AA. Actually you can see that structure from many brands including the MLB and CVS. It's a service, don't go spouting off and trying to scare people. If you want further proof just go look at the WHOIS for the domain. You'll see it's registered to Zeta. You'll even see on Zeta's site AA is one of the brands they support.



Lol take your tin foil hat off.
