Which is why you should not click on a link on an unsolicited email.
If one triggers an email exchange, such as subscribing to a group, then the confirmation is triggered, and if the link in that email looks legit, it might be OK to click (review raw text of email to confirm), though in many cases it is sufficient to respond to the confirmation email.
If an email is unsolicited, unexpected, kinda a surprise thing, do not click.

I recently received a pending email post that basically stated that
my group email was 99.9 full.
It's definitely a phishing email.? There are many clues:
1.? It's from a non-member
2.? There's a typo in the URL
3.? The grammar is terrible
4.? The warning screen isn't for the Groups.io site
5.? There is no webmail on Groups.io
If you hover over the URL shown, a little box should pop up to tell you where it will actually take you.? It can say one thing, but go someplace else, like this https:mygroup.groups.io </g/GroupManagersForum/message/36201>? (This is actually a link to your original message.)
