Full Version: Msn/hotmail Password Reset Emails

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up - there are a load of emails going around to MSN/Live users asking you to click on a link to reset your password.

Ignore these, as there's been a spate of phishing scams of late... one of which is detailed below:

If you have one of these mails, just delete it. If you still have access to your Live account and went through any sort of password reset/verification process that you don't remember initiating, change your password now to be safe! tongue.gif I had one last night and binned it as I'd not requested any password reset.

It appears to not only be Hotmail that's affected...
