konichiwa,

i've gotten the following email 5 times in the 
past 24 hours:

Hi, my best friends are having a wedding in week 
and I would like to make a present for them. I 
want it to be something special. For example your 
good in a gift wrap with a card inside for a 
bride. Also I want to send $500 via Western Union 
to a bridegroom as an additional part of my 
present. The only problem is I want to make them 
surprised and doesn't want them to know that the 
present is from me I have nice way how make 
surprise for them! I am looking for a seller who 
could help me with that. I will pay for a good, 
packaging, express shipping and WU fees of course 
via PayPal. They live in Ukraine, not in the USA. 
Please let me know if you could help me with 
that! I want you to ship everything to him 
directly and to send the money present via 
Western Union either. I could even pay you for a 
trouble let's say $200 - please understand it's 
very important for me! I hope to hear from you 
soon! Have a nice day!!!

and it's come from the following eBay users:

melur3 (gotten it twice from this user)
seraphr1
attylozano
cimarron20

this sounds very fishy, and i wanted to let 
people know in case they got the same email that 
they're probably not the only ones.
