"Attention - Activate Your Amazon.com Points Now - January $100 Amazon Gift Card"

The email message below: "Attention - Activate Your Amazon.com Points Now," which claims that the recipients' January $100 Amazon Gift Card is now available, is a fake. The fake Amazon email message, which also claims the recipients can redeem their points by clicking on the link in the same email message before it expires, will actually take the recipients to a phishing website, malicious website, or fraudulent website where they will be asked to complete surveys. One such fraudulent website is "supergiftland.kooc.info."
