Is This Another Attempt At A Scam?

Here is a copy of a recent email that I got:

Welcome to AOL Customer Support


During our regularly scheduled account maintenance and verification procedures, we have detected a slight error in your account information.

This might be due to either of the following reasons:

1. A recent change in your personal information ( i.e.change of address).
   
   
   
2. Submiting invalid information during the initial sign up process.
   
   
   
3. An inability to accurately verify your selected option of payment due to an internal error within our processors.

Due to this, we require you to confirm and verify your account information by clicking the link below:

If your account information is not confirmed and verified within a certain period of time then your ability to access your account would become restricted.

Now the first thing that I did was to put my cursor over the blue link to see the url of the link. There was "AOL" included in the link but my mind still said no. One of the reasons why this "warning" bell went off is because legitimate AOL email has a different kind of icon.

So I think that it is another attempt at "phishing" whereas you get an email that looks legitimate but it really is not.

If you are unsure about any email that asks you for your personal or password information you should NOT click on the link that is provided.
