new scam out there

Heads up on a possible new scam. I just got this email:

Several things make this suspicious, but the two biggest are 1)there's no record of this from my bank; 2)I got a rebate this year. And since the "report" ends in .pdf.exe, there's no way I'm clicking on it (even if I am on a Mac and it probably wouldn't load).
Isn't there a Web site for reporting scams like this? Anyone know the URL?
