I have a feeling it was legit.. but someone should have used BCC. I recognize about 80% of the email addresses and names on the list.
What I find strange is I am already using DISHONLINE without issues...

I'm not so sure it was legit. I agree with the others that have posted, seems awful fishy to me. Not to mention the e-mail address I used is the same one on my Dish account so it doesn't make sense that they would not be able to find my account number.
I replied to it because it only wanted my account #. My account has a pin # associated with it so I don't feel any harm could be done to it even if it was a scam. I can't think of any other info at risk just because my dish acct # may be out there.
Even if this is a scam and they don't really have your account number, I would be concerned about the fact that they seem to have only sent this email to people that signed up for the beta.
If this is a scam (which, honestly, it really, really looks like), then they somehow got the names and e-mail addresses of people that signed up for the beta. I don't see any reports of anyone getting these emails that didn't sign up for the beta. So if this is a phishing scam, how did they get the list of beta volunteers? That's where I would be concerned.
Oops..... I hit reply to all. Of course I didn't send my acct#
I bet it was someone using the wrong email account at work. Dish will probably now ban all personal email account access at work after this blunder. The person was probably sending the email and forgot they were in their personal email vs the corporate one.
