beware!  the scamsters registered http://www.e-gold -support.com, and the
link in the email you received (i received it too) actually connects to
_that_ page, which looks exactly like the real e-gold page, but is
probably just a password logger.  I always type in bogus info when I get
these (I use Mozilla, NOT internet explorer as my browser, so I don't
worry that much about security exploits [ie, their site installing a key
logger]), so I don't know what their setup will do if you type in your
real passphrase (other than them storing whatever you type, and them later
stealing all your gold).  You might want to change your passphrase.

What gets me was how personalized this email was.  I wonder who it was,
that got the numbers of two e-gold acct's i've been associated with?  One
was mine, one was a close friend's, and I don't think I've ever used the
second account in connection with the email address

hopefully you typed in use.e-gold.com into your browser, rather than
clicking on their link.....

e-gold does not reverse funds, so that set of my "bull-shit" detector
right there.
