| [Scam] Possible scam?
I've already gotten 3 emails from, I believe, a legit source. It's in a foreign language, though I'm not sure which. It started after I created an account with EA games via my PSP. It looks like some ordering info. I'm posting the text of the email, but I'll post headers if need be. I didn't enter any kind of CC info when registering with EA games. Thanks in advance.

Fontana, CA | They're using kroner money, so it's either Danish, Swedish or Norwegian. Or Icelandic.

Smiths Grove, KY | Thanks Cap. It's Norwegian, but online translation doesn't do much for syntax. I'm just going to delete the emails.

This is what I got out of it.
They think you are Emil Kaaen
Possibly?

| Do you think he used my email on purpose, or maybe transposed something and ended up with mine? Is the email most likely not a scam? By the way, thanks for a more accurate translation.

I think it's something to do with that new game "Spore" ("Produktnavn: SKAPNINGSSKAPEREN TIL SPORE"). The product key does not show up in any Google search so it may be legitimate. (I suggest munging it quickly, or it may become teefed by someone.)

I can only guess why the email was used or if it was a transposed character.
It looks like he bought this:
SPORE™ Creature Creator PC/MAC DVD SKU: 70316
»eastore.ea.com/DRHM/servlet/Cont···95024000
Or this:
SPORE™ Creature Creator (PC Download) SKU: 70316
»eastore.ea.com/DRHM/servlet/Cont···96890600

What’s the point of owning a supercar if you can’t scare yourself stupid from time to time? |
