A real Earthlink message wouldn't request your...

credit card number over the Internet like this phishing
scam does. I once received a notice from Earthlink about
a credit card about to expire (it really was from them, and
it was about to expire); they requested that I log onto
my account from their home page (no link provided as in
the above scams) and update the information, or reply to
the email with the new expiration date. I have never
received this kind of scam email yet, probably because
since I changed my address to thwart spammers, I only
give it out to companies or people I can trust not to
spam me. I also don't use it for newsgroup posting, either.
