I agree.  But some "investigation" has been done.  It looks legit.
Please see the Ned's note in this forum thread:

The spammy looks of the original post have been removed there.


Despite the use of a generic yahoo email account, the originating IP of the mail to this list also came from an edu.tw domain. I guess the OP didn't make a very good job of making it easily verifiable as non-spam so list members are right to be somewhat suspicious.

If only I could get my users to be as suspicious of clicking on links in emails!
