We've been getting a lot of these lately. Looks to me like blatant sales scare tactics to me.

Your organization has been selected for a Microsoft License Augmentation Review
Dear ,In the past year, many businesses have adapted by making changes in headcount and shifts toward remote work. Times of change present an opportunity for reassessment. Now is the time to ensure you are maximizing your investments, controlling costs, and doing all you can to safeguard against potential security threats.
Microsoft has selected your organization for a license augmentation review. Your license agreement includes a commitment from you to keep accurate and complete records of your installation and distribution of Microsoft software, as well as a commitment to provide a statement of the number of copies of Microsoft products that are installed throughout your organization.
To support you through this process, you have been assigned a dedicated Microsoft consultant who will work with you and your licensing partner(s) to understand the current Microsoft products your organization is using and how they fit into your current Microsoft entitlements.
The review process consists of three easy steps. Working together with you, your partner, and a solution specialist, your consultant will:
Review your Microsoft hardware and software usage.
Review the collected data with you and your Microsoft partner.
Find opportunities for modernization and risk mitigation.To get started, please use the link below to set up a brief phone call with a Microsoft consultant to go over the process in more detail.
Thank you for your time, and we look forward to working with you

Augmentation? Nice way of saying "Microsoft has selected your organization for the opportunity to purchase more licensing."

That doesn't sound like something from Microsoft.

It really doesn't, I think it's more marketing. It did originate from [email protected], but we know they allow access to microsoft.com domain emails for 3rd party marketing purposes.

No way to know if it is REALLY sent from MS, either. Might be spoofed.
