The scam came to light on Thursday when Mr Straw's office received an e-mail saying its account would be suspended unless a reply was sent.

But when a member of staff replied, they were blocked out of the account.
Genau diese Masche scheint schon seit einigen Jahren zu laufen! :eek:

ATES Dubai Complaints - Misuse of Personal Email
I received a mail from hotmail mentioning that I lose my account if I do not update the details you have asked me. and i have filled the details like my Email ID my password, date of Birth Country of Territory etc so as to continue with my homail account.
Ein klassischer Phishing-Trick also.
