• Suspicious email from microsoft

  I also rec would be email to Microsoft requesting sensitive information, claiming that all non verified accounts would cease. It's a legitimate request? Please make it easier to transmit these requests directly at home without having to go through this process, or worry on my account while I wait for a response. Respectfully.

  It is a scam and trying to access your account (no doubt ask your hotmail, live mail, same login and password to "verify" the account, right...?)

  I hope that you ignored it. If not, change your account passwords as soon as POSSIBLE.  Use strong passwords and the unique passwords (never use the same password on several sensitive accounts such as enamel and anything financial.)
