If it came from Hong Kong, it's not legit.

The actual source header for Amazon promotional e-mail looks like

Received: from a193-59.smtp-out.amazonses.com ([199.255.193.59]) by [snipped]

and is digitally signed.

The sending IP traces to Amazon Web Services.

There's a line missing after the reference number:
"Please note that this message was sent to the following e-mail address: [your e-mail address]"

Thanks. It was a good looking email if anything and nearly had me.

Seem to have a lot of very dangerous emails this past fortnight that normally do not make it here to my desktop.
