Worst Phishing Email... Ever!!

I received this email from a concerned client today and I just can't believe how blatantly obvious this is as a fake. They didn't bother to disguise their email address, they sent an warning about deleting an inactive account to an active account (I know this particular client uses their hotmail address daily) and worst of all they ask you to reply to the email with your username, password and year of birth!!! Are phishers really getting this lazy!? :)

Here's the content of the email:
