nope. copy and pasted the website. seems legit, but when i entered my info, says "Your windows LIVE ID cannot be changed at this time".. fuck.

pretty homo, tells me to change it, yet can't be changed at this time. fuck windows live.

im just trying to think why would they require us to change usernames. did you enter in your personal info like address or password?

ok sounds like a scam to me. better go into your hotmail account right now, go to options and change your password before the phisher changes it for you.

why would hotmail staff need to ask you for your password? they should be able to do anything they want with your account. they can view your emails, messenger chat history, etcetc, all with the click of a button.

welll. wtffffffffffffffffffffffff lol

is no one else getting this thing?

I got this as well and so did most of my friends. Going to hold off on doing anything until i absolutely cannot login which they say will happen. However, it does seem legit.

I got it too , weird stuff.

mushroom-head 04-07-2009 05:07 PM

i got it, but i just ignored it LOL

The work of 4chan, phishing your hotmail accounts so they can fuck with your facebook ones

Berzerker 04-07-2009 06:10 PM

I can't see msn EVER needing your password and in fact they ALWAYS say NEVER give your password to anyone. I had a trojan one time and my account stolen and through emails to hotmail support they gave back my account. They asked what email's I had and what folders so THEY knew and had access to my account without me needing to give it to them. I would be suspicious always of ANYONE asking for passwords.

Berz out.

Got this as well today. It was a mistake on Microsoft's part:
