The good thing about aol is that they protect users from this kind of thing. Even if a user were to click on the link, AOL will probably have it covered and block the page from loading.
I made the mistake of clicking on a link in a dodgy email the other day, but aol blocked the page from loading and displayed the message "AOL has blocked this webpage as it is reported to contain a virus".
People happily slag of AOL but they provide top notch services.
