Your question has nothing to do with what is discussed in this thread and you should have started the separate thread.
You have not yet asked a question... just copied an e-mail and posted that is not the way to search for information.
Suppose you wanted to know the authenticity of the message, but you did not bother to ask and rather just posted the e-mail. See the following which was very easy to find by typing DGTFX in a search engine: http://www.hoax-slayer.com/dgtfx-virus-phishing-scam.shtml
