SMTP forging is normal for spam.

Forging a well known domain "adds respectibility."

Unless and until you get a message from the commercial cabal / general's
son / dictator's widow / presidential fund raiser   which gives you an
e-mail address (not web-mail, but e-mail) to respond to, you aren't
likely to have much chance of chasing down the con artists.

Best advice:  Use a mail reader where it is easy to "delete without
reading."
