The information requested is sensitive and I am surprised to get this email. I responded yesterday asking for information on how I can verify the source of this email, I received another email today 'Final Warning!!' and repeating the request.
Has anyone else seen this and can I be sure it is valid?
I have 2 hotmail accounts actually and havent received this on the other one.
