I received a message from LR, today. and it says I have to confirm my account by clicking a link to receive $1392 from U Is it true? Will my account be stolen if I click the link?
Dear Liberty Reserve member,
You have been sent a transfer of 1392 USD from Liberty Reserve account U3983977. However, in accordance to our newly modified Security Policy, valid from today, 12th June 2009, you are required to confirm your identity before you can receive transfer spends of a sum over 1000 USD. This is done to further strenghten the safety of our members and minimize the possibility of a fraudulent transaction.
Please click on the link below to be taken to the page where you will confirm your ownership of your Liberty Reserve account and receive the transfer spend. Fill out all the fields and press the "Confirm" button. Your submitted data will be sent to our Support team and processed MANUALLY. A few hours later you will be sent an email confirmation and the balance of your Liberty Reserve account will be reflected with the receipt of the 1392 USD.
The above process is a one-time verification of your ownership of your Liberty Reserve account and you will not be required to authenticate yourself once you have successfully completed the process.
Note: Bear in mind that, due to security reasons imposed by our new Policy, the spend will not be credited to your account until you confirm your identity.

Well were you supposed to receive any big funds from anyone ? If that's the case then go ahead, if not then definitely it's a phishing link. I think you should confirm with the customer care of LR.

ofcourse it not from LR. LR or other payment processors will never call you dear member/user. just delete those kind of email and never click any link attached. if you have interests you may login to your account to check directly.

I had never let other LR member send such a large amont of money to me, so I thought it was a bonus from LR, but it is too much. Thanks for clear it.

Well, you can check whether this mail is really come from LR or not by checking the email header details, from there, you should able to see the email address header, if it is not from LR site, then it is fake one. For me, i definitely think that this is a phishing mail.

Some people are smart enough and they don't click any link from their email and there are many people who get easily cheated by these kind of mails

Please delete this mail immediately. It is a phising mail because they try to get login details to steal your money. Never click on such link and report it to Liberty Reserve asap.
