Tasteless phishing or Genuine?  

This is an e-mail that came in this afternoon.
I'm still trying to make up my mind about this one ...

Dear Brothers and Sisters.
My wife Karina was lost in result terror at school of city of Beslan, and 11-years daughter Alina, now to be in the Central Krasnodar hospital, in very heavy condition. At her a gunshot wound and strong burns. The daughter constantly calls mum. I do not know that to me to do. I would not want to live. I live only one dream: to see the daughter healthy, happy that she went and it was pleased lifes.I live and worked two years in Latvia on earnings and dreamed to return back. As long I was in distances from a house as I regret that have left them and consequently could not save them, I never shall forgive to myself. You see with it it is impossible to live! I am simply compelled to ask about the help of everyone who may help ours grief. As soon as Alina it becomes better we for ever we shall leave from here where all reminds a pain of loss. I shall be glad to any answer and any help. I am sorry for my bad English.

It looks kinda genuine but then the following text was "hidden" at the end of it:
zaofolhql uhvneqmkt qlaqvvnr lhjaafbt fcouporai ugygwsnye tgmo

It's sad that we have to treat this sort of thing as suspicious.
If it is a phishing e-mail, then it sure is in the worst taste.
