Ya, i too recieved these mails, in different avatars, daily. More common on a yahoo account, dont know why. Ignore it, its spam. Just mark it as spam so yahoo's junk mail filter can be updated.

@krates: no matter how many **** you send, it won't affect them. They do mass mailing But ya it releases your anger
