I've heard of a few others getting this also. I know it's spam, but unique spam.

I haven't seen it on my gmail account but I have on my Excite account and my Bluebottle account. I was also receiving it at my last job.

We suspected at work that it was phishing at a minimum, possibly even "spear phishing". The ones that I have received generally carry a re-directed link.

Gotta love the idiots...
