I would like to give my feedback, but I just wonder if this email is an authentic one or some keylogging scammer.
Has anyone else received this email and clicked on the link?

Maybe it revolves around the conclusion of the Welcome back Campaign Feedback Perhaps?

I'd say it's scam.

I'd say it's scam.

Ditto! Scam for sure. Report the e-mail to SE and don't click the link since SE didn't use 3rd party services for their polls and surveys.

Also would be nice to have a community rep or a GM to check this out ASAP...before we start getting waves of compromissed accounts.

God stop misinforming people. The link is legit and they did use a third party for this survey. Stop jumping to conclusion without using technical facts. Hurr Durr it's a scam...

And while a third party made the survey, it is still hosted on SE servers...

You can hardly blame people for being skeptical of a random email with a link to a third party website that very few others have gotten.

Sure is third party website when the url ends with .square-enix.com. It's only a subdomain...

Being skeptical is one thing, claiming that its a scam is another. There is nothing wrong with asking in such cases indeed. But jumping to conclusion without any evidence is just wrong :s

This. AFAIK every suspicious e-mail is scam until proved wrong.

I haven't gotten any such email myself.
