Phishing Email Warning - GoFuckYourself.com

I got an email this morning from "admin" of one of my own tgp's. I knew instantly it was bullshit because we handle our own servers. lol

Anyway, just letting everyone know that if you get an email similar to this that looks like it's something to do with one of your servers...it's not. 1-cert.net is coming out of Russia. Here is the email I got:

"Attention!

On October 16, 2009 server upgrade will take place. Due to this the system may be offline for approximately half an hour.
The changes will concern security, reliability and performance of mail service and the system as a whole. For compatibility of your browsers and mail clients with upgraded server software you should run SSl certificates update procedure.
This procedure is quite simple. All you have to do is just to click the link provided,
to save the patch file and then to run it from your computer location. That's all.

Thank you in advance for your attention to this matter and sorry for possible inconveniences.
