Phishing Scam Warning

A reddit report about a phishing scam that cost someone Amount not specified. Learn how to avoid falling victim.

I applied for a job on indeed the other day and got an email today saying that they want to move forward with me. But the way that the email is written seems very weird to me. It made a random reference to Dungeons & Dragons that I had to look up to understand, and didn't really say much else other than to reply to the email. The account that sent this email to me is just a gmail account and doesn't include the name of the company. And when I tried to look at the job posting again, it was gone from indeed. I can't find any information about this company when I google them. Should I respond to the email or is it possible for me to get phished just from a reply?
