IMMEDIATE ATTENTION REQUIRED
Dear Customer,
Windows Live Hot-mail® accounts has been growing really fast.
We are having too many congested email due to the anonymous registration of Hot-mail, Msn, and Live Accounts on our database system. Please reconfirm your email account and information to know if your account is still active and will also be recorded
on our new database system.
We need you to fill in the information below within 48hours or you will lose your account permanently.
*Name
*Username
*Password
*Date of birth
*Country or Territory
Here are some ways to help you manage your account after you reconfirm your account.
- Create an archive - Set up a folder on your PC’s hard drive where you can save large attachments. Then just delete them from your inbox. You’ll still have them and your in-box will be that much smaller.
- Make your filters work for you- Did you know you can set up your Hot mail account to immediately delete junk e-mail? Go to Options, and click Filters and reporting. Under the “Delete junk e-mail” section, select Immediately to delete junk e-mail right away. Once you’re finished, click Save and you’re done.
- Delete a bunch of mail at once- Go to your Junk and Deleted folders, and clear them out by clicking the “Empty” button in the action bar.
Sincerely,
