I get quite a number of very personal e-mails to my gmail address, been getting them for years now. Financial information, personal messages, online passwords, family pictures... All from people with the same first initial/last name as I have. Its been posted in a large regional newspaper as the author's address, used when people buy items online, used for online banking... the list goes on...
The problem isn't just the people with my same initial/last name combo, its the people they give it to as well who seemingly forget to include their middle initial, constantly. 🙂
Today's was great
Woohoo! Wouldn't it be great to reply to have them just deposit it in my own account? lol, obviously not gonna do it, but I find it amazing the information people send over e-mail to the wrong address. :beer:

Dear Joshua,
I just want to remind you that you have elected for $16,500 to be deducted from your bonus and contributed to your 401(k). If this is something you would like to change, please let me know by 4 pm today.
Best,
