Xena I received my proxy yesterday morning from Etrade. I voted both accounts and within a few minutes received confirmation of the votes. I have been an Etrade customer for about 15 years. Over that time I have received MANY of these proxy ballots. Always they are correctly registered and legit. Sorry, I wouldn't trust someone who called on the phone. It may well be legit if they already had your account and share info and phone number. Whatever you people do .. be SURE TO VOTE .
