Screamed BS, so to double-check I contacted Aweber who confirmed it was a scam. They're aware of the problem and are taking steps to resolve it.
BUT... I figured it was important enough to post here to let you guys all know (I didn't see it on the first few pages etiher).
Remember... never click on links in emails to enter this kind of info. Instead, go to the website by typing in the address bar (in this case, www DOT aweber DOT com).
To clarify... this is no reflection on Tom or the awesome team at Aweber. But in my distracted state I almost clicked on it, so I'm letting others know about it just in case.
