Yeah, it’s a phishing email. Before you delete it, use it to train your email’s spam filter.
FYI, when one is in doubt about the validity or safety of a link, I recommend a script called “Snoop-a-page” (formerly “Master Snooper”). It shows you the HTML source code of the URL, so you can see whether you want to go there. I’ve used it for many years.
One can install this very handy PHP script on one’s own site – see this page. It’s free; just follow the directions.
[i]Copy the source code of the Snoop-a-page software and save it to your server as a PHP page. Give it file name snooper.php (or other .php name if you prefer).
You’re now able to request a document from any URL and see both the header information and the source code of the document as the server provides them.
A handy tool to have around. Especially for site developers.[/i]
Update: I took my own advice. It took all of 30 seconds to put it on my DH-hosted site. Try it here, and if you like it, install it on yours:
