There's the place hosting that URL that was linked from your e-mail.  I'd forward a copy of that to their abuse department, and maybe give them a call and let them know what's going on.

I'm guessing that a public nmap posting together with the solicitation "Take it down" would make you an accessory should someone actually decide to "Take it down."

It's your ass 'n all but damn man... not smart

I went to that sham site and it doesn't even have encryption on the page you're supposed to enter all your info.

So I shouldn't have entered all of my info in that page I got in my email? I was wondering why it was asking for my credit card number.

You don't want to know. Most ISP's consider this type of activity "hostile" and when somebody complains, you can say bye-bye to your account.
