Contact sent an email to my personal email address claiming that they have made a donation to me.

"Violet and i donated money to you. Contact: alarge112@yahoo.com.hk"
The quote above is the actual email in full. This was the second attempt at contacting me just this week. I only flagged the first email, which had slightly different wording but the same concept. The email address from which this message was received is different than the one that I was asked to "Contact"... I did no such thing. Having looked into "cooperindustries.com" these people are NOT associated with them.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
