I've received a dodgy looking email in my 'signup to list' email account. Normally I'd just delete, however this one is a little more interesting as it contains my full name and address.

Email body is:

Claim (and then a claim number starting with MV)
My name
My full address and postcode

Followed by

"I look forward to hearing from you" and a name.

Other thing that's a little different is that the name on the email actually matches the email address (which is a club-internet.fr address).

The email has an attachment, which is a zip file containing a password protected Word doc - password is in the email body. I've scanned the file with various virus scanners and nothing has pinged but the document contains macros which I'm not going to enable.

Anyone come across anything similar?
