    That is almost guaranteed to be bad news. Do NOT give them any information. Many e-mail scams of this nature. Some redirect you to places that capture personal information or other sensitive information. Please, please, please, Phil, be very careful. Some are pretty sophistocated and target you based upon your web traffic and are in-turn tailored to you in order to be enticing. There are very real and dangerous people out there who are virtuosos with a computer.

    I got a scam/spam email before from london. It said that I won a coca cola photo contest or something like that. I have also received the more common "nigerian lottery" ones before as well. You would think that a real company (or even the scammers) would at least know how to spell "de(c)eased"

    Don't think I've had a scam email without a spelling or grammatical error and I get lots of them.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
