Default Microsoft warning of new threat???

Is this for real or another fake email. I personaly haven't received any emails from microsoft but was told today of a new threat that is going around in the form of some sort of E-Card and apparently Microsoft is sending out emails as warnings. Has anyone heard otherwise? I couldn't find anything on the site or is this another hoax???

will be a HOAX if mcafee or norton having nothing on their sites, consider it a hoax.

Thats the one reportedly issued by CNN and it wipes sector 0 of your HD, if so that is 100% hoax.

Microsoft don't email virus warnings, there's your first clue.
