Dude, how could it possibly be a scam when YOU'RE logging into YOUR Neteller account and confirming everything? Think about the steps and what they're asking for, it's nothing to worry about.

They list THEIR correct phone number and offer email support at THEIR email address.

No scam.

It could easily be a phishing scam, good job being suspicious!

Suspicious email with a clickable link?

I just emailed'em about it, even though the link looked good to me, I'm checkin' it. Theres some pretty sneaky ways to hijack good looking links.

I logged into my account by typing the url (not the email link) clciked the Options tab & didn't see squat to confirm anything like the email said to do?

Still no reply...

I'll post back once I hear back, better safe than sorry IMO

I received the same email, I believe it is legitimate.

Use commone sense anytime you get an email from a financial type site. Just log into the site directly and don't follow links from emails and you should be safe.

Never go to the site through a link in the e-mail. These scam sites send out e-mails of legit sites. They put together their own fake site, when you log-on and punch in your information they've got the information they need.

Also be cautious of any e-mail that addresses you with something like "Dear Neteller Customer" These are type of e-mails where they are fishing. Legitimate sites will address you by your name.
