WARNING: New e-gold phishing email

I just received an email telling me my egold account has been frozen. Its a blatant phishing scam.

DO NOT FALL FOR IT.

Text of the email follows:

Quote:
Your account has been temporarily FROZEN. Please access your e-gold account related e-mail below in order to clear security issues as soon as possible.

Click on e-goldsupport .com/login.html

e-gold is Better Money. Access the e-gold system 24 hours
a day on the web at "www .e-goldsupport .com"



The header will be
- Your account has been temporarily FROZEN -

Again: Do not fall for it!! You'll be giving away your password and user account and everything in it.

I've inserted spaces in the urls so they should not be clickable here... but if you get the email, just delete the damn thing. If you are worried, go to your egold account ONLY via your own bookmarks and NEVER via an email link.
