Net passport password reset? Please help Thread

I just got an email in my inbox saying that I requested to reset my hotmail account password by email. This is wierd as I did not request this. Can you reset your hotmail password by email?

Here is what it said

"You recently asked to reset your Microsoft Passport Network password by e-mail.
Follow the instructions below to reset your password, or to cancel your password
reset request.
TO RESET YOUR PASSWORD:
Click the following link and then follow the instructions at the Account
Services website."

Then it has a link. I'm not touching it because I'm not sure if this is a scam. It also has a link to stop the process or something. There were two of these emails in my inbox. Is it possible somebody has been trying to get into my account? Is there any way to find out? Please does anybody know what this is?

I'd just ignore that e-mail.

It won't do anything to my account? Like I mean there isn't like a time-limit thing or something? It's just that my email account is important.

whats the address of the sender? I can almost promise ya its a scam.

The sender is "support@passport.msn.com" and the email even has the MSN logo! I don't think this is a scam. I think it might be someone trying to get in. But I may be wrong. (I hope I am!)

It's highly possible, passport has the function of password reminder through e-mail, no worries though - as long as it's in your own inbox it's safe.. Just some lame hax0r kid, happens even here at mDb.

Ok thanks everyone. You've been a big help.
