Delete delete delete. If you've never created a Rift account you answered your own question already. Even if you never use your email address to register in websites, etc., if any of your friends or family has your email address on their address books, there is a an extremely high possibility that any of them can get your email address compromised. A lot of people are not particularly careful by keeping their antivirus/adware/firewalls up to speed. Additionally, even if they do, there is always a chance that a hacker may obtain the information by other means. No email account is 100% hack proof, no matter how good you may be in keeping up with your personal online security.
