I just got one too. I have my IMs set to ignore anyone who is not on my friend's list.
Mine had the same message as yours but was from goto_chatdetectives.com_0117 I am reporting it as abuse and also doing a virus scan right away. One can never be too careful.

It's an illegal hacker site. I've reported them to ICANN and their domain host.
