email received asking my account information, is this true?

I received an email from the windows live team.

Hello. I recenly received an email indicating that within 2 weeks my account on hotmail will be banned unless I have click on answer, and enter my account information... I didn't think it was safe to send my password through an email, so I thought I'd ask first... The email said from the windows team live and because of the greater empowerment they need to know which emails are used and which are not. Could someone help me understand if it is a scam or if it is an email direct windows genuine?

Emails requesting usernames, passwords and your personal information are phishing scams. Please see:
