  Hello

  Its a SCAM!

  In the United States, you can contact the FBI, Attorney general, the police authorities and consumer
  Watch groups. Arm yourself with knowledge.

  The Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) is a partnership between the Federal Bureau of Investigation
  (FBI) and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C), funded in part by the Bureau of Justice Assistance
  (BJA).

  No, Microsoft would not email or call you unsolicited. Or they would know if there were any errors
  on your computer. So those are the frauds or scams to get your money or worse to steal your
  identity.

  Avoid scams that use the Microsoft name fraudulently - Microsoft is not unsolicited
  phone calls to help you fix your computer

  Send replies it thank you

  Not really, no.  It could be an accident too - someone ' one with a user name very similar to yours that's typo in their username, may not know why they are unable to open a session, requested a password reset, thinking they forgot what it.

  Just got an email from Adobe, it asked me to click on the link to reset the password, but I've never asked to reset my password, which is strange? This email is from Adobe.

  In any case, I changed my password just in case.

  Oh, just to confirm it is used as a reminder to change my password once a while.

• Is tha legitimate alert account I got Windows Live yesterday? Needs personal information within 48 hours

  Is tha legitimate alert account I got Windows Live yesterday?  Needs of personal information within 48 hours or Hotmail account will be cancelled "to eliminate congestion."

  Carol,

  The e-mail you received is fake, they fish for all of your personal information. Do not respond or provide information. I received emails like this all the time and just delete them. The only way that your hotmail account will be deleted would be idle for several weeks or months that I know. If there is no link associated with the e-mail address please not click on any as an attack of malware, which may encourage.

  I hope this helps.
