OK and your point is? I too have received several of this spam lately. Just another attempt to take advantage of a "marks" weakness.

Just a phishing expedition; delete 'em unquestionably even without opening. Expect sender hopes you will visit the link and enter some personal info too. Don't even confirm the inbox by responding in anyway

Dead set give away is the bad spelling and / or grammar... no business emails are so sloppy (probably from simple online translation or very low socioeconomic background).

Regards.
