Spam alert: "Order from Greece." / from: Robert Corwin

I received this message today. This appears to be a phishing scheme to strike up a conversation about buying something, and then that may lead to hijinks. If you receive this message, be wary.

  3. These people are very busy! We have received many of
    these e-mails from "different countries"? They use
    stolen credit cards and try many ways to get you to send
    money to forwarders, etc. Scam! Scam!
