Interesting email and domain

I got this email recently.


SPAM. Yet another attempt to gain credentials. Interesting is that the link yields:

http://www.aya-manz.tk/

The Domain Name Service (DNS) indicates the domain is registered in Tokelau. Spell check does not recognize the name of a small group of islands with a total population of 1400.
 However the country code of .tk is the third largest by number of domain names in the world. Any/everyone can register a domain in Tokelau.

 Care should always be used for links in email (e-postcard) and web sites.
