Garmin email

[potman2]

I have just received an email from Garmin !!!!! Saying if I don't sign in to my account, my account will be deleted in 60 days. It says its been years since I've been active on my Garmin account. I use it often though the year updating and putting routes on at least twice a year . Anyone else got an email saying their account will be deleted or is it another Scam.

No, can you check what e-mail address sent it to you?

Had the same . Rather than use any link in the email just login to the Garmin website direct . That way you’ll cut out any potential scamming middleman. Then you’ve completed the task if it was a badly managed genuine request.

Do what IainMac explains above.

For data protection, and for maintenance, it is normal for digital services to "prune" dormant accounts in some cases.
Sending an email is usually the procedure.

Try Googling the e-mail address and be grateful if you haven't replied, as it was dodgy in 2023!
