Google AdWords: Please update your payment information

Out of blue I received this Google AdWords phishing e-mail. I did a quick search and couldn’t find any single reference to it. So it seems that this is a new phishing scam.

Don’t click on the link and don’t try to use your login or password. Mark such e-mails as junk and do SHIFT+DEL to delete them.

Without even looking at this website I can tell that they will collect your login and password and do whatever they wish to do at their own will.
