You should be able to tell purely from the stupidly broken English being used that this isn't a legitimate email from a professional service who have someone proof-read things they send before they send them...

i wouldnt even click the link as the website could install anything on your pc. in future simply hover the mouse over the link and in the bottom left of the browser it tells you where the link is going to take you. that way theres no need to go to scummy scam website

Don't have to be an expert to see that it is a very stupid phishing attempt, I have received some emails in the past which certainly looked very real, this one is done by some amateurs.

Haha, really? They targeted you after clicking that link? That is good that I was reluctant to do click that shitty link. BTW what is the best way to defend against phishing  attempts? Is there a software dedicated to block phishing attempts?
