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?

BlackBerry 10 account information for a non-existent account
I upgraded to one peripheral BB10 to another, and this process required me to re - enter e-mail account information. This has worked well for two email accounts that are connected to my BB, but I also got (and still get) notification 'Account Info necessary' for a non-existent account, specifically on behalf of "name1.name2. It is a corruption of an account existing '[email protected] '. In the notification, when I click on 'Open', I get the message 'Accounts', "There was a problem at the opening of your account."
How can I know my BB to stop asking information about an account that does not exist? My camera is classic BlackBerry running OS version 10.3.2.556.
Find accounts cleaner in BlackBerry World. The descriotion he describes what he does. It should help you remove these shadow accounts. The developer is on Crackberry and there is a thread on the app, if you want to simulate before using it.

It telling me it has to do with security, and I was among those who are chosen. It's true, I ignored the premiera but today I had another, first said he would cut in 24 hours, now its two weeks.
You will never receive an e-mail from Microsoft asking you personal information such as your password. It is a scam.

My email address is validated with a third-party domain provider and I use Outlook Express for some years.
Recently, I send emails to my clients to contact most those who are account hotmail; When I ask them about the information I sent them, they say that no email received from me!
A few times, I have scored between 25 and 50 accounts selectively my contacts, send them information about the products and associated,
based on that, I think that my account (* address email is removed from the privacy *) is marked as Spam and I need my account back free... I don't write text harmful or malicious. Tech from my provider field tell me, this is the reason why my account has this issue.
I need microsoft help technical to provide my account and solve that, if this is the case.Thank you in advance.Hello Oscar,.
I suggest you to contact support for your 3rd party email provider.If the Windows Live Hotmail account is the issue, please re-post on this forum:
