Dear: earlham.edu Users,

We are currently carrying-out a maintenance
process to your earlham.edu account. To
complete this process you must reply to this
email immediately by entering your User Name
here (*********),and password here (*********)
if you are the rightful owner of this account.

(You can tell that this is not legitimate most easily by the fact that it asks you to send your password in an email, which neither SCS nor ECS will ever do.)

This process we help us to fight against spam
mails.Failure to summit your password will render
your email address in-active from our database.

(Here's the threat to try to scare you into a quick response before you think about it. We will not turn off your account with advance warning, or at least a very good and clearly explained reason.)

You can also confirm your email address by logging
into your account at:http://webmail.earlham.edu/

NOTE: You will be send a password reset message
in next seven (7) working days after undergoing
this process for security reasons.

Thank you for using earlham.edu!

EARLHAM.EDU SUPPORT TEAM.
