My wife and a friend of ours have received the email below today. My first thought was scam but i believe that you are upgrading your mail storage..

:Dear ORCON.NET.NZ User,

Official word from Orcon - This is a scam.

We will never ask customers to go to a third party website, that is the No1 indicator of this being a scam (apart from my inside knowledge that is).
