I had popup chat from matlab works, while looking for answers on my activity feed. Chat for 5 mins and receive $10 Amazon gift card. I chatted with representative named "Ashish". After the chat he asked me for email address and disappeared. Scam? Beware.

What did you chat about? Did it seem like he knew anything at all about MATLAB?

I saw the popup as well, but accidentally navigated away from it so I did not see the questions.

Is it the feedback they regularly ask?

I've just had it confirmed by Mathworks that it is legit

I suggest you wait another day, and if you still haven't received what they promised post here again and I'll ask mathworks to look into it (but note that I don't work for Mathworks, so it may not do much).
I did ask the Answers developers directly and they confirmed to me that the chat request was legitimate. They didn't say anything about gift cards, but I didn't ask about that.

If you thought it was a scam, you probably didn't give the person your email so you wouldn't get an Amazon gift code.

No I gave my email, I thought it is scam when I did not receive any gift card.
I received it today.
