Suspicious Mailing

[Anonymous]

OK I've just received this and I find it very suspicious
It looked official - but sent from O2.com
Hello
The current O2 forum has become one of the most popular parts of o2.co.uk and so we've decided to give it a bit of a facelift.
We know that you're really involved with the O2 forum today and with the new forum, you'll be able to participate even more - and you'll be rewarded for it!
You'll start collecting Kudos for all your contributions, from the rest of the community. You can even mark posts as solved when a question has been answered!
To find out more about when the new forum will arrive and latest forum announcements, keep watching the announcements forum (viewforum.php?f=1)
With our new forum, all users will sign in with an o2.co.uk account. This is the same account you use to manage your O2 products and services online i.e. check your bill, top your O2 Money card up. Each user will also have a display name which is used to represent them when they post in the forum.
Because you're one of the top users of our forum, we wanted to transfer your existing username into the new forum so you can keep it as your display name. For us to do that, we need an existing o2.co.uk account to link the display name to.
Do you have an o2.co.uk account and would like your display name transferring to that account? If you do, you can let us know simply by replying to this email mentioning the o2.co.uk username you have. If you've forgotten what your o2.co.uk username is, you can find it out here: https://registration.o2.co.uk/Reclaim/ReclaimUserName.
If you don't have an o2.co.uk account and would like to keep your existing display name, we need you to register an o2.co.uk account here (http://www.o2.co.uk/register). Once you're registered, reply to this email mentioning your new o2.co.uk username and we can begin the linking process.
If you have any questions about the new forum or are having trouble setting up an o2.co.uk account and would like to talk to us, just reply to this email and we'll get back to you.
Just because you're one of our very special forum users, we'll throw in some kudos too!
Thanks, and we look forward to seeing you in the new forum soon!

I didn't doubt the email's authenticity as it was from o2.com and the reply was going back to o2.com. If the reply was going to o2@BankOfUganda.com then I would be suspicious (sorry, watched Fonejacker earlier!)
Looking forward to seeing the changes

Being honest all the ideas and suggestions we submitted in the what we would like thread seem to be included. Only thing they left out is us having the power to ban spammers then and there!

agreed if you have a high enough kudos lol.
