Is it worthwhile reporting this?

Ignore it! It does smell Phishy (our new word for this month!) Reply to it and your MSN account will be used as an open pathway for spammers or worse
Look up Phishing on Google and you'll see what I'm on about
Here's the same thing I recieved but from a different company The English on your's is a lot better than on mine
And here is a link which has very good advice on this Matter, both in Detection and prevention.
This is a growing threat Catty and we need to be vigilant on this

And what to do with that email?
Forward it to Msn (highlights by me)

Bedstor, there's something wrong with that link (to report to MSN). It returns an error message saying it can't be forwarded because some of the names are invalid, or some such. I'll try the other one.

Thanks.

Catty

Open the Member Center page which has the top 10
options on it. Look to the left and hit the "Customer Support" link(2nd from top) then the "Contact us " link on the next page. This will bring you to the page where I got that quote and the address is on that page.
