Is this a scam????

Received this email today. Anyone know anything about "Google Products Search"?

Subject: Google Products: List Your Products Free! You may or may not know about GOOGLE PRODUCTS SEARCH. GOOGLE PRODUCTS SEARCH is a free marketplace unlike EBAY and AMAZON But without fees. We offer an upload feed tool compliant with GOOGLE PRODUCT'S new requirements. It takes just 1 – 2 working days to install, upload, and see all your products live in google products search. This tool will work for NEW GOOGLE MERCHANT ACCOUNTS as well as EXISTING ACCOUNTS (to meet the new google requirements). Here's what you get: 1. We will install this custom written module to your existing ADMIN area. 2. We will upload the first feed to google and verify products are live. 3. We will set the feed on a recurring schedule to "sync" all changes to products new and existing to google products every (week, 2 weeks, 30 days). 4. 60 days support included with module. RESPOND to this email with your name and number if you are interested in a free demo!

I found this link http://www.google.com/prdhp and did a simple search for bandsaw boxes. Heck send an email to google asking them. I don't have a merchant account so I do not know.

Don't reply to the email, but check the email address that it was sent from -- if not a Google.com address, I'd suspect it to be spam. If you're unsure after that, check Google website directly, and call the number from the Google website, not one that may have been listed in the email.

There may be some validity to it though....just checked the website for details.

I wouldn't think that a legitimate google email would be allowed to be sent out with grammatical errors...

Even if google products search is real - which it likely is - then I'd suggest searching it out yourself, rather than replying to the email.

I also agree, they would unlikely name other places as well if it was legit.

Without seeing the whole message, I'm not sure, but it sounds like someone trying to sell you a tool to make it easier to use Google Products. Not a message from Google, per se. So you'd want to check out the tool supplier.
