when you hover your cursor over the "click here now " link, what appears in the bottom left hand corner of the screen? - it should tell you where the link is pointing to.

Exclamation
Probably a Hoax although something will probably try to install itself if you click there!

What was the title of the email? try searching on sophos.com or mcafee.com with the title and you may find our more.
