    Hi Quo_Vadis​,

    Thanks for your diligence in checking on this email's legitimacy! I can confirm that this is a legitimate email from 1Password. 

    If folks ever have doubts about whether an email is from 1Password, you can email abuse@1password.com to confirm with a member of our team. We also have this page that lists the domain names we send email from, to help confirm their provenance.

Thanks SimonH. 
I appreciate the reply. However the email says to update. But 1P Linux won’t update unless there is a legitimate update. There is none currently. 
I checked the resource through my package manager and it states I have the latest update. Same on LMDE 6, MX Linux XFCE and KDE flavors. 
Having only used Linux for three or so years, the only option I know is to uninstall completely. 
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
