Aliant Email Scam-

   

 

An email scam involving Bell Aliant is still popping up in some people's email inbox. The e-mail refers to the company doing an upgrade to the web-mail and requiring your address and pass-word to keep you from losing service. The email is actually a phishing email designed to trick people into giving out their personal information. They are not legitimate emails from Bell Aliant, NBNet or Sympatico. We first reported on the problem back in February.

Aliant has published information on Email safety on its website.
