Good move, sembgal. Phishing is happening all the time. We need to be alert and help by letting the service provider know of any suspicious behavior.


Speaking of which, have you guys changed your Amazon.com account password yet?

[ngl2010]

Yup. Changed the Amazon password, PayPal password and other sites where I used the same password.


Do you think we should change the SingPass password due to the recent breach?
