Canadian Pharmacy pops up in emails from Facebook with subject “Welcome to Facebook Goods”

MX Lab, http://www.mxlab.eu, started to intercept a new spam campaign, since yesterday, by email with the subject “Welcome to Facebook Goods”. These messages are sent from the spoofed email addresses in the format that Facebook is using on the domain facebookmail.com. Some examples:

update+bscts2qxhedj@facebookmail.com
update+6i8mlfxn1svw@facebookmail.com
update+6i8mlfxn1svw@facebookmail.com

This is the body of the email:

Notice that the Facebook looks are used to disguise the real purpose of the message.

4 different URLs are used in each message with the format: http://www.domainhere.tld/s/h/o/p/ that will redirect you to the Canadian Pharmacy at hxxp://midiclxic.ru/.
