Spam/fishing weirdness.

I got an email today saying that my package from amazon had been delivered and signed for, by one S. Qet. I hadn't ordered anything.
Yesterday I got a message from the mail daemon that my email couldn't be delivered. Said email looked like it was in Cyrillic writing, and checking I saw that the email had come from Russia, but somehow using my address. I think the delivery notice originated in Russia also.
Trying to figure out what the purpose is, unless someone is up to no good and wants to keep their identity secret? So throwing me under the bus. These are not the kind of messages one replies to.
Anybody have a clue?

Agreed, a non-weird phishing expedition.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

So, if delivered tomorrow as well, consider it an unadvertised BOGO?
