Free license Counter-Strike 1.6...?

[76561198000332190]

I recieved an email that says I won a free license for cs 1.6. It seems a bit suspicious. This is the content of the email: " STEAM

Dear player,

During the summer, the team decided to provide 100,000 licenses to Counter Strike 1.6 Steam
You were one of the 100,000.
Use this program from activate licenses: Use licenses <-link

where does the link point "Use Licenses"? That does NOT sound like anything i would trust. every thing else there seems correct but I wouldn't trust the link that supposedly gets you a "free" game...

That link automatically takes you to the one you posted though.

It does? Cool, I wasn't going to risk clicking on it.

1.) If it's not on the official site/in the client it's probably a scam.

2.) If it seems too good to be true and/or use broken English it's a scam.

These two lines are waving red flags enough.

If you need to ask in front of such an obvious scan attempt, dont listen to princes.....

from what ive experianced before, if a link dosent take you to steam its probably dns spoofing, some people use these when using keyloggers to get passwords etc

aviod!

A link in an email can look like anything. Thats why you never trust links in emails.
Same for sender address..... or even recipient address....

Dont trust emails.

If you try to reply him it's "Steam Powered <[e-mail]>", i think it's can't be trust...
