Pay-Pro trying to contact me, is this legit?

[Stosh]

Below is an email I received about an hour ago after making my initial deposit to Empire today. I would appreciate feedback to its legitimacy...

Judging from what people were saying when the account closing emails were being sent out for Empire, this is from them -- they always claim that you provided the wrong phone number without actually attempting to call it.

Of course, if I wanted to spoof Pay-Pro, I'd include that at the top of my email as well.
