Account suspended - True or not?

This is what's known as a fishing scam. Basically, they create a site that LOOKS like egold, or paypal, or your bank's site... maybe even to the point of masking it so the URL APPEARS to be legitimate. Then they send emails to a giant list of people, exactly like the one you got. SOME of those people come to their page and put in their information on the phony site, and then the scammers have your personal bank/paypal/egold information and can log in as you and take all of your money. DO NOT give those people your info. Most emails know to catch those, and that's why you found it in bulk.

Are you sure that the email came from egold? Since your account is still active i guess you have just become a victim of phising. phising defined by wikipedia is: phishing is a criminal activity using social engineering techniques.[1] Phishers attempt to fraudulently acquire sensitive information, such as usernames, passwords and credit card details, by masquerading as a trustworthy entity in an electronic communication. Ebay and Paypal are two of the most targeted companies, and online banks are also common targets. Phishing is typically carried out using email or an instant message,[2] and often directs users to a website, although phone contact has been used as well. You should ask egold if they really did suspend your account or sent you that mail. I also suggest that you change your password in egold just in case that you've been phised.

Becareful with email requesting you to verify your account and to key in your password or pin code for whatever account that you have as they will never never send out such email asking user to key in their account number and password.

I've gotten many, many emails like that from eBay, and not once has my account actually been suspended, although they usually ask you for your password, credit card number, and pin number. The first time, I almost fell for it, and was in the process of filling out all the information when I stopped for a second and thought "why would they need my pin?" They didn't. I was being phished. If you look at the link provided in the email, it most likely does not actually start with the mylot.com. It will usually have numbers or letters in front of it. Also, if you ever question whether or not an email is valid, it is best to open up a new browser window, and type in the address yourself.

I hate to tell you this, but you've been scammed. E-gold and Paypal will never send you e0mails about suspending your account. This is a common tactic scammers use to get your information.

It is definitely not from egold. I have had a few of these. Just delete them straightaway.

i dont think its true..e-gold account dont sent any e-mail for sure it is a scam...if you cant access then try creating another one..

Becareful this is probably somebody pishing trying to get your information. If you log into egold they can help you out. I followed the linkl once and ended up losing all my money in egold and they could not get it back for me.

It sounds like a scam to me. If you can still access your account and it doesn't show that it was suspended, then it never was. Don't worry about it. You have to be really careful about these kind of things, like never giving out your password and stuff. I think the fact that the email was sent to your spam folder also is something suspicious. I don't think it was suspicious.

Hey, The same thing happened to me in PayPal.. Only one problem.. payPal did NOT send it.. it was one of those emails known as "phishing".. and i'd be willing to bet that the same thing just happened to you.. i contacted PayPal and they confirmed they did not send the email, someone had copied the PayPal site almost to a T.. there were very few ways to tell the page was not real.. for example everyone knows that in PayPal when you access there pages they always start with "https" the S stands for Security.. the page i was sent to did not have the S.. The email said there was a problem with my account and if i did not update my account i was facing being suspended and/or deleted.. so i immediately contacted them when they asked me to verify my credit card info that i used when joining PayPal.. problem there is this.. i did not and do NOT have a credit card.. that sparked curiousity and i contacted them about it.. they tracked it down as best they could to stop them from "phishing" from anyone else.. So anyway, i wouldn't open anymore like that.. instead just contact E-Gold and get it from the source itsself.. with that said.. best of luck...

No its a scam mail Its probably got a virus on it I get messages like this all the time http://mailboxmoney.blogspot.com http://www.blogchex.com/urbancitycrew
