Having Problems Getting To Your AOL Mail?

It seems that at least one person that I know of that belongs to AOL is having trouble accessing their AOL mail and I'm not talking about using the AOL software. I'm talking about trying to access their AOL mail via the Internet.

Since this is just happening today maybe there is some kind of glitch or some such other temporary problem.

Update!

I just checked on Twitter and AOLmail has posted that they are aware of the problem and are working on it!

Be Careful With Your AOL Billing Information!



I just got another spam email asking me to "update" my AOL billing information! I knew that this was a spam message right away because AOL has said time and time again that they will NEVER ask for one's billing information. One of the biggest giveaways of this particular spam email is that it asks you to verify your credit card information! When you get an email that says this you should feel a warning flag go up.

However if you want to make sure that this is not a valid email but am wondering if it was sent from AOL you should contact AOL directly and not click on the link that appears in the email that was sent to you.

Unfortunately a lot of scammers are making a lot of free money by scamming people this way!
