Possible scam e mail.

I'm getting repeat e mails from Sky Sync asking me to Update details as my " old mail box "  will be closing tomorrow. I suspect a scam , is anyone else receiving this e mail?

It's a scam. There's no old mail box, and there are no updates. I suspect it will be an attempt to get you to log in to a fake web page designed to capture your credentials, and then take over your email account (the main reason why many think they've been 'hacked').

 

Just mark it as spam, but otherwise ignore it.

It would not have been sent from a Sky email address so this is most definitely a scam email as these have been going around for a few years now as there is never anything you would need to update on your online Sky email account.
