Quite strange.
Subject: Test
Body: hello optout a
That’s the entire message.
Like a fat fingered Employee accidently pressed Send to a mailing list.
The email came, mid morning Friday, Sept 29.
I can’t be the only customer on the mailing list. Did you get this email?
I didn’t get that one, but once I did get an email that purported to be from amazon (with whom I do plenty of business, so I get lots of emails from them). This one was in my spam folder, which should have tipped me off. I opened it and within minutes my hard drive was frozen. I don’t remember the name of the virus/trojan/malware/whatever, as this was years ago, but I spent the next two weeks fixing and reinstalling my operating system. I believe I came here for help with that one. I had only my phone to post from. It was a nightmare.
Motto: don’t open suspicious emails from amazon (or anyone else).
I checked for an attachment before opening the email.
Pretty strange. I’ll change my Amazon password just in case.
It does raise the question why this doesn’t happen frequently. It’s so easy to fumble around on a phone and hit send. If it’s a mailing list then lots of people get a unfinished email.
As I recall, the one that messed me up did not have an attachment, which is why I thought it was okay to open it. I would never open a questionable attachment.
Thank you for the tip.
I’ll be more cautious in the future.
I confirm I got this email twice, yesterday and today, both having been sent at 20:07h according to time stamp…
Whew!
I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one. 
Yeah, I got the same email, at:
9/29 6:05am
9/30 7:07am
Weird.
I also got the same email, sent yesterday and today, both with a timestamp of 11:05 p.m. UTC. Glad to know it wasn’t just me.
I’m feeling left out.
A couple weeks ago I received a flurry of “free $50 gift card for our loyal customers” e-mails from Amazon (it said). Didn’t open them.
Though it came late - at last it came. Tonight at 20:32h (UTC+2) according to timestamp, and still the same subject and text…
All the same, subject “testing” body “hello optout a”. Looks like someone screwing around with live email addresses rather than test ones.
