They will probably ask you to pay to "reactivate the account"... if they do, this is a scam.

They are either "phishing" to try and get your username/password details... or as Royse777 suggested, they will ask for a "fee" to reactivate your account.

DO NOT fall for either scam... delete and/or report the email as spam.

Is this mail from an exchange you have been dealing with and do you own 2 BTC ?
What do you mean by "conto of coins" ?

I am in agreement with the other folks there that this is probably a scam(99.99%). If you clicked on that link I would advise you burn all your wallets on that PC and move your coins to new ones and format your PC. You never know what kind of tojans and other nasty's downloaded when you opened that link.

Always  be 100% tinfoil-hat paranoid about security. Better to do all you can to protect yourself than to get hacked.

Hello and welcome in crypto world, please be careful these emails are phisings and scams. Also be aware of twitter scams like first 200 people who send ETH here, will get 4 to 10 ETH back. :)

It's a scam. Ignore these kind of mails. They are gonna try to extract some important information from you and will probably ask you to reactivate your account. So just block n report it as a spam!

Also in order to attract you they will make some fake promises to you regarding making more Money to you...so don't get conned...just stay alert!

Be careful, this is a purely scam, recently there is a lot of fishy mail sent to scam people, They sent everyday thousands of mails to scam everyone they found idiot to click and complete the procedure and they got scammed finally. So the point is to ignore any kind of these emails to be safe.

It seems that you are new to this kind of email scheme, then let me just help you.

Just look at the email address who sent you if it looks too fishy to you then you should block it or don't do anything what that email told you to do. Most of the spam emails are not sent directly to your inbox that's why do not bother to open them, it is obviously a spam.

Open an email only at your direct inbox, but still be very cautious because you are still not safe if someone will sent you a message.

Definitely its a scam for sure. no one will give away like that. There is no free stuff.

OP, if you're not involve in bitcoin investment at the mention date in the email message sent to you, there's no doubt this is a scam message and if you follow the procedure provided by the email sender your computer will get injected with virus which may lead to the stolen of your personal information and you must also loose your bank account either.

i also dont know, let me know please

You should have read the thread. The majority of the posts here give you the answer already.
Here is a short summary of those posts:


... if they do, this is a scam.
DO NOT fall for either scam... delete and/or report the email as spam.
I receive like 3 or 4 emails just like that every day, all rubbish scam.
Scam ... Ignore it
they are all scam, i got tons of them. in crypto world scam is everywhere, just be careful, do not share anything


Don't fall for scams. Noone is going to give you something for free. Neither will a "20% return investement with 100% security" really give you profits.
Use your common sense and avoid anything which "could be fishy".

First of all, by the way, they have constructed the email you fall to believe the content & reply back to them. The scenario starts from here. Mostly those are scams & some people fall in without researching the facts. You have taken a good step to land here as this is the place you can take a lot of replies from the people who have a lot of experience.

There is nothing that you can earn without hard work, It's better to understand that any kind of these free stuff brings you troubles. Never follow or reply these emails. if you need some free coins to gain do proper Bounties & AIrdrops. you will be amazed at the result.
