Default WTF? Possible PartyPoker Scam...

... not initiated by the fine people at PP of course. Here's the email I just received:

Two things make this a little bit sketchy:
1. Party has never asked for my password before, and it seems a little odd that they are requesting "password assistance."
2. Whenever I get an email from Party, the sender's name is usually something along the lines of "Rajesh" or "Nadir" or some other clearly-Indian name. Lucy Jones? I don't think so.

Anyone else get this email?
