    Did you ever get one of these:

    Does that mean someone tried to break into my e-gold account? :eek:

    Maybe someone's just running accounts through a script with generic passwords to see if anyone has sci enabled.

    I have receieved some sort of mail before and you must not clicked those links. Anyway you try to checked your e-gold account and if its working fine then there is no need to worry.

    Is there a link in the email telling you to access your account? If there is it's a phishing email. If it's legit you can strengthen your password both for the e-gold and the email wher you send the PIN.

    Could be a phishing email. Never sign in using the link provided.
