Just FYI, but that email is faked. By default, gmail will only show logos for senders automatically for domains with verified BIMI certificates. Since that's obviously not the case here, the only other way is to add the gmail address to your contacts and manually set an image for that contact. Or I guess the logo could have been added to the screenshot. In any case, rather misleading.

Without that Venmo logo the whole scam is rather obvious. But hey, anything for clicks I guess.

Edit: Also obvious from the times of the screenshots. The email was received at 9:47am, the screenshot not showing the logo was taken at 9:49am. The screenshots showing the venmo logo however weren't taken until 2:23pm and 2:50pm.
