    I would just wait and see if they send another one. Usually Spam Bots will send one and forget you. Was the address it came from legit?

    Post the message headers, and they can cancel your account, and then put you on an internet blacklist so you cant get internet again;)

    https://www.rogers.com/web_auth/signin.asp gives me a 404 error.

    And... This email seems very phishy. It's got all the ingredients: A "security inspection" of some sort, claims of "unauthorized access", the need to click on a link in order for you to re-authorize your account, and that page probably asking for sensitive information.

    Corporations don't do this anymore, mostly because phishing became really popular.

    Call them! (Like Micro said :-P)

    Fastest way to figure out what's going on and be confident about it.

    Im about 95% sure its fake. I get those things for ebay all the time. they want you to sign in and give them all your passwords and stuff so they can then go on your account. Hope this helps.
