Recetly received it on my Gmail account.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing on behalf of Emaritoons an award winning, new and innovative
animation company located in Dubai. Our aim is to produce animated films
that compete with the best companies worldwide within our market. Our
animation products are based on the culture, morals and values of our
target audiences.

I have attached a profile of our company to this e-mail and request that
you visit our website: www.emaritoons.com, which is still under
construction. However, you can download a digital brochure, which has
information about some of our products, press releases and prizes,
directly to you own computer.

The main reason for contacting your company is that we are looking for
possible outsourcing studios in India for some of our projects.
Presently, we have our own production house in Syria and an outsourcing
studio in Turkey; hence, it is a logical next step for us to look to India
for our next phase.

I wish to enquire as to whether or not you feel your company has the
ability to fulfill such a position for us, and if so could you please send
us some specific detailed information on your capabilities and prices per
minute for your different types of animation.

Thank you very much for your time and I hope that we might co-operate in
the future.

Yours sincerely,
Rizwan Mohamed Nazeem,
(events coordinator)

Not surprising, spam messages usually have attachments to gain access of the system.

If you considire it spam , dont respond by any means, spammers generally wait for such oppurtunities. If you give it to them u r gone.
all they require is conformation from your end(coz they just send mails without bothering if the ID exists), if they get it they get to know that the ID xists
