I received this email few days back:


Verification Required‏


From:    Blockchain (active@blockchain.imfo)   imfo  < It is blockchain.imfo instead of blockchain.info

Here is what they wrote:

Blockchain wallet has been deactivated

We have temporary deactivated your My wallet account
Visit the link below to access your account
and verify your phone number to activate blockchain wallet account .
please reactivate your blockchain wallet by verifying your phone number Here  << Pishing link

Sincerely

Everyone using a blockchain wallet should have 2FA enabled. Then you won't have to worry about these scams.
