I just received an identical email, but the price they quoted was $299.99.

The email contained numerous spelling and grammatical errors. I have no plans to contact them.

I just got this email and I suspected it was a scam. The number they gave me to call was 833 691 0800. So I called them to see what their pitch was. Sure enough, they ask me to type in a website to give them access to my computer. I told them my antivirus program was alerting me to a possible scam (it wasn't, but I wanted to hear their response). They pretended to be surprised and assured me they were legit and to disable my antivirus program temporarily. I was polite and hung up.
