Has anyone else had this email? I assume Hotmail wouldn't ask for your password, but then, I don't want to lose my account either...

Windows Live Hotmail® is faster and safer than ever before and filled with new ways to stay in touch. Storage space that grows with you means you shouldn't have to worry about deleting your e-mail, and the new calendar makes it easy to share your schedule with family and friends.

You will need to confirm your E-mail by filling out your log-in information below after clicking the reply button, or your account will be suspended within 24 hours for security reasons. To do this, please click your reply button, fill in the required information and send
* User Name:
* Password:
* Year of Birth:
* Country Or Territory
YOUR DETAILS WILL NOT BE SHARED.
After following the instructions in the sheet, your account will not be interrupted and will continue as normal. Thanks for your attention to this request. We apologize for any inconveniences.

Hotmail or anything like that will not ask directly for your details but ask you to go to the official site and log in and take further steps to do the verification...report it to hotmail.
