i received an email from windows live team saying that  they discover a virus in one of my folders in my email and i have to send them my name and password and if i don't do that within 2 weeks, i will loose my email .
do you think it is true ?

Can't save aphoto or other attachments ... on trying message says its got a virus and was deleted - and that even if the attachment is from microsoft - my friends photos don't conatin virus's either and although I can open I can't save to my gallery - many thanks
Received an email supposedly from microsoft/hotmail - It gives Message ID 66198 - says I need to confirm my identity etc as I have received too much email in the last 7 days.  Is this a scam or for real.   Strange thing is Hotmail's spam filters indicate there may be an issue with the message.  Do I just dump it?  Or do I really need to confirm information to get getting my emal.

thanks

i keep getting emails from my family and friends when i ask them they said they didnt send them so when i open them its a virus so how can i stop them

ps thank you

I received the following email I showing Microsoft's address talking about Virus Notification is this a real email or spam?
  • The Hotmail account is active and has been for over a decade
  • I did NOT delete the folders- just got up one AM last week and they were gone
  • I have restarted my PC and logged in on my Windows phone, my Windows 8 PC, my iphone and my kindle without problems
  • I am getting new emails so the account has not been deleted
  • I do not have a virus on my machine
  • I have not opened up any "bad" apps or emails
  • I really need them back

 

  I cannot find anything online except that others have had a similar issue. Please help me. Thanks

I got an e-mail from the Microsoft Team they saidthey would have to reset my password because an e-mail I received had a Virus they said if they did not hear from me in 24 hours they would block Hot MailThey wanted to know my user name and password  I hit Reply and a prompt came up

which said do not give your information out so I didn't and now my e-mail is blocked and I do not know what to do

i use my pc at home, and i randomly keep signing in at another 1-2 locations, i have no other browsers running, and i changed my password a few weeks back yet its still doing it.

have i been subject to hacking or a virus? if so what more can i do
