   According to Robert McLaws it IS legit. See here. Also a Microsoft employee confirmed it here. As for the domain registration Robert says:

   “The site is hosted for Microsoft by a third party in the UK. The reason you need your SSN to register is because Microsoft has to claim any gift over $600 in taxes, and so do you. It’s taxable income. Again, it is a legitimate site, a Microsoft employee passed it along to me.”

   So it does appear to be genuine, but, quite understandably, a lot of people have been suspicious of this due to the non-Microsoft domain.
