The emails typically look something like this:Dear user of the mydomain.com mailing service!We are informing you that because of the security upgrade of the mailing service your mailbox (info@mydomain.com) settings were changed. In order to apply the new set of settings click on the following link:http://mydomain.com/owa/service_directory/settings.php?email=info@mydomain.com&from=mydomain.com&fromname=infoBest regards, mydomain.com Technical Support. The From email address for these messages vary widely, but often have some sort of tech support or customer service association to it. These emails are usually sent to any publicly exposed email addresses that you have on your website.These emails are not from us and are either phishing attempts or attempts to install malware on your computer. If you get any of these emails, you should delete them immediately. If you click on the link, do not provide any personal information or follow any instructions that they ask you to follow.
