been getting lots of em in the last few days saying a friend has sent me a greetings card, even got a cheeky one saying we sent you one but you havent opened it yet !! , i deleted all of them cos its not my birthday or anniversary so no reason for any cards to be sent.
Maybe your friends email has been breached and all the contacts been circulated .
Must admit one of the ones i got a couple of weeks ago was supposedly from a family contact. I deleted then rang her and she knew nothing about it, She did a scan and then changed her email password
