I received a password reset email claiming to be from Sony. While I didn’t click the link, I went ahead and signed in through my browser just fine. The email seems identical to other official Sony emails I’ve received. Is there any chance this email could be a scam trying to access my account?

Yeah, sounds like someone’s trying to snag your account! Always be suspicious when you get random reset emails. Better to err on the side of caution and check it out before clicking anything.
Could be that your email was leaked somewhere. I faced a similar issue with my WarGaming account not long ago. As long as your email is secure with two-factor authentication (2FA) and you’ve got a strong password, you should be good. You might wanna check [Have I Been Pwned](https://haveibeenpwned.com/) to see if your email’s been compromised anywhere.
When it comes to password reset emails, rule of thumb is simple: if you didn’t ask for it, don’t click on it. Keep signing in through your browser or app like you have been.
