I got this in my email twice this morning. The fact that I got it twice and that it didn't know my name automatically pointed to it being spam. The "submit" link doesn't take you anywhere. It just dumps all that pretty information into the hands of some fatherless con artist.

Yor link would require that the user have access to your mail account. I'd suggest cut/pasting the text of the email into a post, if it's not lengthy. If it's html-based message and requires graphics, take a screen shot and post at a hosting service, then link to that.

Southeast Asia & Tsunami Relief
Tens of thousands have been killed ? thousands more are missing and injured ? in the largest earthquake to strike the globe since 1964, causing devastating tsunami waves.
The American Red Cross continues to maintain contact with our partners on the ground and is preparing to support operations with relief supplies, financial assistance and personnel as requested by the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent societies
An American Red Cross team of workers trained in relief supply distribution has been deployed to the affected areas. The American Red Cross also is coordinating with other sister Red Cross and Red Crescent societies to determine how best to equitably and effectively distribute an initial stockpile of relief supplies including tents, blankets, tarps, plastic sheeting, and hygiene kits.

| I know it doesn't look like much here but it does look fairly official when you open it. I get scam email saying it is from Ebay or Paypal or Citi Bank all the time, I think they call this phishing, but I think this is really of low. |
