New Egg phishing e-mail - BEWARE!

I received a very convincing phishing e-mail purporting to be from Egg today. It was convincing because it is headed "Your Egg card statement is ready" rather than the usual cobblers about confirming your account details.
I have told Egg about this by phone, but the site linked to is still up and running right now - so BEWARE! The linked site is an exact clone of Egg's login page but the URL begins with http://www.shamahluv.com which is a bit of a giveaway - (1) silly URL; (2) not https.
Apologies for posting this in multiple places but I wanted everyone relevant to see this post before they give away their banking details.
