If you have to ask, almost certainly the answer is 'yes'.
As it turns out, the site that this points to claims that there is someone out phishing using their name, so it's a definite yes.
It appears to be legitimate. The link is to the domain owned by Lansing Automakers Federal Credit Union and is a secure link. If you are worried and are a member of this credit union, type in the address of your credit union into your browser (don't click the link) to be sure you are going the site directly. Read and follow their directions. Better yet, give them a call and inquire about the enrollment procedure.
I do like it. Chop it up into small sq. chunks, fry it off in some oil with onions and garlic and then upload a tin of chopped tomatoes. Simmer and then consume with pasta and grated cheese. low-priced student food!!
It's not spam, it's a very important warning. Go read this...
