Re: Phishing E-Mail

Next time you want to share something like this with us, it would be better if you included all the headers of the original message, not just message body. Sanitize sensitive items like your email address if it appears in the headers.

ATT or any other responsible ISP would never send a message like this out to their users or require a user to provide details like those requested to prevent deactivation of an address.

However, I suppose there are some out there that will fall for it and provide the information requested. They deserve what they get.

I know right off the top of my head about 15 customers who have responded to emails just like that.

Well, there are whole industries that revolve around the pain and suffering of others caused by their own lack of common sense or outright stupidity.

If everyone wised up, they'd all go broke.
