Actually, I'm glad this was posted since I also received this (to my personal email address) and I've just spent the last 20 minutes or so investigating it. I usually just send my spam to trash and move on but this one caught my eye. If others got it, and can explain what's happening, I'd appreciate it.
What I found: The email originated from c-24-126-245-82.we.client2.attbi.com [24.126.245.82] The phone number really is valid for a group called ibtco.com who I have no association with. Google search for "lidiya aliyeva" only returns these log segments: Jan 4 23:13:32 horsey testmail[11038]: i057DUSs011038: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=2056, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=SMTP, daemon=testv4, relay=h62n2fls34o867.telia.com [217.208.39.62] Jan 4 23:13:34 horsey testmail[11060]: i057DXXC011053: [EMAIL PROTECTED], delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, pri=212631, relay=ibtco.com.mail5.psmtp.com.

[12.158.35.251], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (Thanks) Which can be seen in it's entirety here: http://test.smtp.org/log This isn't by any stretch an exhaustive inquiry, but I'd love to have someone who knows better than me tell me what's happening here. Why would email that, from all outward appearances seem to be spam, be sent with a valid phone number of a (seemingly) valid company but via (seemingly) nefarious means(seemingly) be trying to get banking info from me?
