Default Free First Hug Baby Blanket

Free First Hug Safety Blanket
First Hug is offering a free Smart Baby Blanket to expecting moms. I’m not sure if this is a legitimate offer so you may not want to use your primary email address. This offer is available to U.S. residents while supplies last.

It doesn't look legit. The site just registered on 4/21/10. It's registered through Contactprivacy.com so you can't find out who owns it.

Got curious and did a little more research:

No one answers the phone number on the site. You just get an unprofessional voice mail. I googled the address and got Quality communications, but when I called the phone number for them I got someone's home phone. (Maybe they've posted other scams using that address?) The patent number is for a similar item meant for use in hospital delivery rooms only (Infant transport device - Google Patent Search) Looks phishy to me.
