Jim: Before retirement I worked for the other side of the "Mounties", providing technical support, assisting with Internet investigations. This is certainly suspicious for many reasons. I did a Google search for the term "Oceanic procurements services" and came up with nothing, even in the newsgroup search area. I also used a clustered search engine called Vivisimo and it too came up blank. Having been a Government employee, we used the singular form of "procurements". The plural form seems incorrect to me as well as some other gramatical and stylistic faults in the message - lack of capitals in proper names, lack of spaces, etc...
If you still have the original e-mail, use a feature of your program to reveal all header details. This might point out the exact origin of the message, SMTP server and other interesting details.
Sometimes us Canadian can be too trusting and there are many out there to take advantage of this. For heavens sake, don't give out your address otherwise they may come and steal your car regardless. I've heard this ploy used for upscale SUVs and before you can call the authorities, the vehicle is on its way out of the country.
Bonne chance... Cam
