Analysis: Look closely at the top of this scam letter.. IT SAYS "Your registered name is included " and unless these guys are psychic YOUR registered user name is NOT on this letter. This is your first clue that this is a scam letter. NO WHERE on this letter is any information relevant to you displayed. NOTHING personal and even if it was, the look at the links... The numbered link is actually OR was an FTP which stands for File Transfer Protocol.. I think this means that if you click on the link files from your computer will be transferred.  I removed the link in order to prevent you from clicking on it inadvertently. Actually every link on the email was an FTP:// link. This particular email is VERY dangerous. I have not in the past seen an FTP link. Be very careful if you have had this email and clicked on a link. An FTP site is a File Transfer link for websites.. NORMALLY this is so you can transfer information to a website you own, however in this instance it may be for malicious reason.

Rating: This one again depends on you not looking at the link. However when you do you get an FTP and a number, instead of a Website Name or address.

 

 

  This email is a bit scary. The links all go to an FTP address and again that stands for File Transfer Protocol  for adding information or transferring files to a website address.. this means that if you click on it that you may be transferring files to this Scammer that contain financial information.
