Is the letter legit? It claims the Google Nest parody went so far as to create fake Google employee profiles on social networking sites, used false Whois info (listing Google as the registrant and contact), and featured a (working) Google "Sign In" button.
The last one is the most concerning (and confirmed by mirror sites, e.g. http://google-nest.codewing.de/ ). That's more like what I'd expect from a phishing site; a parody page should have no need for it.
