Title: Weird SIUE Email
Post by: Tony on 2008-08-10T23:42:56-05:00 (Sunday)
Did anyone else get that email to send SIUE your password?  I got an email saying that I needed to respond to this email to verify my username and password!!!  Yeah, stupid.  It had all the info for SIUE, but when you hit reply it was a yahoo account.  So, I send an email telling them that I don't believe them and if it is SIUE how stupid they are for doing things this way. 

Anyways, just wondering if this is a wide spread thing or what.  I hope none of you sent your information.

Yeah, that's not from SIUE. Just ignore it and delete it.
