Also got one.
Very clever phishing email. Looks very natural.

I was confused by strange domain tmweb.ru

Who here on the forums has access to email addresses?
I think spammers use stolen MtGox DB

yeah, using the DB that got passed out june '11, i'm sure.  i have the same list

anyway, i just got this.  points to rgy###.tmweb.ru

i didn't think it was very clever though, i mean, all you have to do is see that the link is to some site in russia?

I had my email on the mtgox db that leaked and never got any of those emails. Strange. Not that I used gox anyway, so I wouldn't get fooled.

It's a wonder there's not a lot more of this going on, really.
