Hi,

Even if a link looks safe, it always a good idea to
see the message source. I receive lots of spoof mail
with links that look good but are completely exposed
when you see that at the source, they are really
pointing to somewhere else.

The thing here is that the guy was not looking for any
personal info. In this case, it was cool. But binaries
are still a concern, and messages need to be examined
before clicking on any link. Believe me, I learned
that the hard way.
