I have, I got such from two of my friends and the funny thing is, the emails were filtered as Skunkworks mail as they were put in my mailbox, so I'm not so sure if you guys got them also.
There had been a brief discussion on a thread some time back about something similar but there was no conclusive solution. What's bad is that if you check the headers, the send to everyone in their address list.
I was thinking of setting up a filter to automagically deletes mail comming in with subject "hi friend" but i'd have to do it for everyone in my address list.

Hi guyz,

How many of you have noticed such kind of emails,coming from people you know?I think there is an issue whereby your mail is being used to market certain products(Which are cheaper than the normal market price)..... Its really wierd.Anyone with the same experience?
