Yes, obviously this is a phishing email scams, but cyber criminals are still trying because they know that they can still victimised people because majority of them might blindly trust, specially newbies. I didn't got a EAL warning, but I got the "Deceptive site ahead" error message when I go to that website. Thanks again for the fair warning.
