The link in the email appears to point to www.lossavoidancealert.org but actually goes through a legitimate hacked site (in this case [donotclick]samadaan.com/wp-content/plugins/akismet/swacha.html) to a landing page of [donotclick]tempandhost.com/news/done-heavy_hall_meant.php or [donotclick]tempandhost.com/news/done-meant.php (sample report here and here) which is.. err.. some sort of exploit kit or other. It doesn't seem to be responding well to analysis tools, which could either indicate overloading or some trickery, most likely something very like this. Anyway, tempandhost.com is hosted on the following servers:

1.235.183.241 (SK Broadband Co Ltd, Korea)
46.183.147.116 (Serverclub.com, Netherlands)
155.239.247.247 (Centurion Telkom, South Africa)
