Fraudulent email contents

I received an email this morning from "COX" with the subject shown in the thread title, threatening account suspension if I didn't "reactivate my Cox webmail account". The embedded "sign-in" link, which I did not visit, goes to a domain that has nothing to do with Cox and as is often the case with these encounters, there is a fairly obvious 3rd grade grammatical error in the text. Just a heads-up if you should see this float into your inbox at some point.

I love how this fraud is sent under the guise of reducing fraud. rofl.
Cox already has your info, they won't mail you asking for it.
surprising how many people still fall for this.
