E-card: Greeting Card Scam

[Calyx]

Ever receive E-cards from a friend or relative? I got one yesterday and figured it was probably from the youngest son or a cousin, but it only said it was from a family member so I decided to check out the website instead of just clicking on the link. I'm sure glad I did because the website has a phishing alert posted and it's the same email that showed up in my mailbox:

From: "greetingCard.Org"
To:
Subject:You've received a postcard from a family member!
Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2007
