Indeed. The date of birth and country is used as password reset as well, so If you gave them that they'd also change that info which would make it much harder to reset your password. |

Hotmail will never e-mail you about personal stuff. Only to advise bigger storage spaces and new features. If your getting hotmail hoax mails your probably going to get a load more from different places. For exmaple "HSBC" or "Natwest" |
A very special super, duper thanks for K :3 |
