Hi Ed. No, this is not from the Chebucto office. You can tell this because the mail does not come from Chebucto and it does not direct you to a Chebucto website. It also threatens you and that is not the way we communicate with our users. Criminals around the world want your email password. To get it they will try and trick you. We do not adopt a threatening tone with our users, but the criminals will try and make you do what they want as soon as possible so they will make it look like you must act immediately. I will re-send to you the emails we've sent out in the past warning our users about this kind of scam. Please read through them so you can spot the different scams criminals will try. We will never, ever, ever ask you to send your password in an email and we will never, ever, ever ask you to log in to a non-Chebucto net website with your password. A real Chebucto email will come from office@chebucto.ns.ca or my awright@chebucto.ns.ca address which will say to reply to office@chebucto.ns.ca. A real Chebucto email will be written in proper English and not be threatening in tone. A real Chebucto Community Net login, such as our Webmail service or credit card renewal page will be protected by an Extended Validation security certificate which will turn your web browser's address bar green and if you click on it will tell you you are connected to the Chebucto Community Net Society. This is not something that can be faked by criminals. We won't ask for passwords in email and we won't direct you to a non-Chebucto Community Net website that asks for your password. Anything that does do this is criminals, always.
