I called Verizon and they said this is a phishing scam... Has anyone else independently verified the original claim with Verizon, other than through their website/privacy TOS?
Wow. They claim that a page on the verizonwireless.com/vzw.com domain with a class 3 SSL certificate is a "phishing scam". This is probably some form of scummy damage control - convincing uninformed customers that it had nothing to do with them.
