Ok I dont normally fall for internet spam, I mean I`ve been on the net for a long time so most tricks just dont fool me. But since I signup at so many sites and sometimes the login email may take awhile to recieve, i`ll admit, I got caught by this one:

nothing actually happened I opened the url and it wanted me to login, I closed the browser and was bummed a spammer actually got me, all these years I`ve been keen on their game until now. LOL I guess I`m a sucker in my old age.

TYep that link is about right. It`s really hard to trace spammers, the software they use etc, makes it very difficult.
