This variety of phish is becoming increasingly common.

They take what is otherwise a normal 'receipt' type email and twist it to their own purposes.

Like any other phish, reviewing the internal routing headers should show you who really sent it.

ALL phishes appeal to one of two human factors....

Greed, or fear.

I've seen many a phish - I've yet to ever see one that didn't try to appeal to one or the other.

And it works, both of those things will motivate a human to action before thinking :)
