I got this email. Is it legit? Hi Member, heads up, we had to lock your account because security flagged some odd behavior. We've taken steps to protect your information and need your help to make sure this doesn't happen again:

This is obviously fake.

    It might be real but we have to see the actual email that was received in order to verify it because the link isn't a Cox link.

      It's a phishing scam. The link is made to look like Cox but redirects somewhere else. The bad spelling is to get around anti-spam rules. Do you think Cox would spell like that?

        That's why we need to see the actual email.
