I have just received an email (copied text below) telling me my account needs to be re-activated and I need to do this by following a link provided in the email itself. It sounds a bit suspicious, but I wouldn't want my account to be de-activated. Does anyone know or has received a similar email or should I regard this as a phishing scam?
thanks,
the address of the sender shows as: "Hotmail.Teaml.ID-6755.uk@wlive-hot.msg.ju3ne.fytq.microsoft-smartstart-tech.co.uk" I thought it was odd that the email address is from UK, yet the
address in the text is from a location within the US.Thetext of the email follows:
- *** Email address is removed for privacy ***
- Send email
- Find email
