Default Can you say possible scam?

I got this random email from "eurocode" which I know isn't from them.

Let me know if you can't see the first pic.

Default ** Update from eurocode **

Hello,

We would like to inform you that our company has not been generating these e-mails, some internet forum has been hacked into and our business is being used to get cc info out of people. We ask that you disregard these e-mails.

Default yeah, the domain name is "istemp.com" which is definitely bogus, but no information on who its reg

to. Just looks like a hosting company is managing the domain.
