Default MSN Warning

Wondering if this is a scam. I have an MSM email. I keep getting warnings that if I don't update my profile they will cancel my e-mail. Legit or a scam?

Log in to your MSM email the normal way. See if there's a message to update your profile. If so, do it. Just don't follow any link you received in the email.

Always look at the address from the sender of suspicious emails.
That will tell you if it is a phishings attempt.
