If
you EVER receive an e-mail such as this, send a complaint to your internet
provider and to the RCMP. DO NOT respond or “click
here”. This would NEVER be a request of
any internet provider. Why would they
have to ask for any of your information?
They’re the ones who will give you your password if you forget it! Don’t be scammed! And, Eastlink is more than capable of
protecting their services without having to ask their subscribers to “help”
them.
