I received exactly the same email from same email address. I searched them first in the internet, and luckily find out that they were scammers before I give my personal information. Thanks to scam warners..

Thank-you for the update yaya86. Yes scammers quite often change names and e-mail addresses to try and confuse honest people. Indeed it is highly sus when an individual uses differing names.
