Recently received an email appearing to come from a friend of mine whose email address I have in my address book and to whom I've sent emails, but the email was NOT from her. It was an "invitation" to view her personal site and photos at "MyLife.com" which she does not have. When you click on the link it asks for your information to allow you to view your friend's site, which ends up being blank because she really doesn't have one. When I contacted my friend she said "NO" she had not sent the email, didn't have anything to do with the sight and had received a similar email from another of her friends, who really hadn't sent it either.
I believe this is fraud, and obvious phishing in trying to get people to sign up for their site and then talk them into their "enhanced" version for a charge.
If you see an email from this company, delete it immediately and don't go any farther. Then report it here and to: phishing-report@us-cert. Gov.
