I am receiving an email that says it is from Windows Live Service and that my account hasn't been updated by customer care account care services.  Is this a phishing scam since it is asking for my full name, user name, password, birth date and country or territory? It is stating this is necessary to avoid blocking of my account and it is a backup. Where can I send this email to in case it is a phishing scam?
Is it true that hotmail is going to a new secure 1024-bit RSA key anti-virus firewall and is asking for user name, password, Year of Birth, and Country info from the users or is this just a phishing e-mail
I received an email claiming to be from Windows Live Customer Care asking me to verify my hotmail account by providing my name, user name, password, birth year, and home country.  Is this legit?

My question is in the title. If you need further amplification, please contact me. Thank you.

The crux of the problem is this. I'm being bombarded about every 2 or 3 days by somebody purporting to be an employee of Hotmail asking to verify my account, asking for address, password, date of birth, country, etc. This all come over an unsecured address. This has been going on for some time, and I think it is about time you do something about it. Occasionally, I respond to them with bogus information, and report it to local law enforcement and the FBI, Cyber Crimes division. I've also contacted you twice, no response. You seem to make it difficult to contact you, either by email or telephone, since no number is listed for Hotmail. Only snail mail, which is my next step.

This is frustrating. I personally don't believe these people work for you; but you should be concerned, because they use YOUR brand, YOUR trademarks, YOUR logos, etc. This is not some amateur bunch of hackers out there, and you might have some legal liability issues if you don't stop them.

Hopefully, this will get through to a legitimate employee, and some measures will be taken. Thank you.
