yep I have gotten this same thing several times. New it was a fake as soon as I got it as we files by paper and not on the web.
 
I get multiples of those every day. My filing is paper, too so I insta-spotted it as bogus. Another clue was that they keep hitting 3 of my e mail accounts. :rolleyes:
 
well is new to me and believable coz im not from US ;)
