it was a Spam by them and loads of us got that mailing, and there site is now under suspension due to massive complaints about it.
they seemingly got onto the list archives and harvested Email address from there and mass mailed us all with that.

Rick Hi all,I did a whois search of blinknation.com. I found out that the hosting sitefor them is hostgator.com. I sent a complaint to support@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, outlining politely and in detail how I have been spammed through their server. I had to click on a link to verify my address after I sent it, which is understandable, but then almost immediately got a response back stating that my concerns were being forwarded to their abuse department. I encourage anyone wishing to lodge a complaint to do as I have done and e-mail support@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, as there is strength in numbers. It's not the host's fault, so be polite and you're more likely to get heard. Be prepared to verify your e-mail address by clicking on a link. Thanks very much.
