"Update" emails that have any sort of "click here or lose your access" link are almost always scams.
If you check your email with Comcast's Xfinity Connect webmail (https://connect.xfinity.com/), look for the XFINITY Verified Email logo next to any message that claims to be from Comcast/Xfinity. Note that anyone can insert an XFINITY Verified image in the body of an email, so it's important to note not only the presence of that image, but that it is in the correct locations:
See https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/comcast-verified-email for examples of valid logo placement. A logo in the body of the email does not count.
Unfortunately, AFAIK the logo is not present when you view one of their messages in an email app or program. It's only visible when you use their web email site, and only for Comcast.net emails.
Samples of recent phishing messages can be found at https://spa.xfinity.com/alerts under "Top Phishing Scams". To report a scam email to Comcast, follow the instructions under the "How do I report phishing email sent to or from a Comcast.net email account?" heading on https://spa.xfinity.com/help/email-abuse?faq=spam-email.

Received similar threat from [Edited: "Personal Information"] recently. Question: How could Comcast fail to classify this as Garbage?
