Default Anyone know about this site?

I got what I think is a fishy e-mail:
Quote:
Hello,
Finally, a smart and simple way to manage your contacts!
With UNYK, I put all my contacts together in one address book that is automatically updated. One of my contacts changes his or her information at **** : My address book is updated. I change information at ****: My contacts’ address books are updated. Simple, but life-changing!
Can I add you as one of my contacts? To accept, click here!
You too can create your own smart address book.

The website it points to is:
**** = u n k y dot c o m

vasa1, visiting that site, there's a banner heading stating: This domain has recently been listed in the marketplace at name withheld by me. It's a well known Spammer trick to use domain names that are for sale, and then redirect to another site.

There is a real site (unyk dot com) that touts what your email says, however, using NoScript, the site tries a META redirection which I did not follow. Caveat Emptor!
