Default Is "Hotmail" kicking out anybody?

I got a question from my wife...

She says: i got a couple of E-mails saying that acountsthat have"hotmail.com"and aren't using them, they will be terminated due to a lack of space for al members and their space available in their own acounts;This request is to send that particular Mail to everybody that you know that has a "hotmail.com" acount...

sounds fishy... is in it?

Finally... It does not have a company logo!! mmmmmm...
Be aware of this guys

I did have a hotmail account a long time ago and never used it. It got canceled because of lack of use.

Yes, hotmail will de-active inactive accounts, but if these emails are requesting you to go login, be weary. It may direct you to a phishing cloned website where somebody can steal the username and password that you put in, and once they get ahold of your email login information, you have given them access to any online account you have associated with that email account.
