IE recognizes it as a phishing scam too.
I've gotten a lot of these "Dear blah blah blah we have a gajillion [insert foreign currency here] with your name on it. Come to this obviously not fake website so we cansteal your identity give you all of this free cash!"
Once I replied back telling them how obviously fake it was. I doubt anyone read it though. These things are usually put out by bots.

The most bizarre phishing scams are the ones where they tell you that a free website you're a member of now requires payment and directs you to their website telling you to enter your credit card number.

You can always tell if they're fake by looking at the URL. It's so easy to tell the difference that it's not even funny.
Of course, a lot of the technologically disabled people would fall for it easily if it wasn't for their browsers say "IT'S FAKE YOU NUMBSKULL!"
