What the heck? People in company receiving emails from themselves

It's meaningless. Some little script-kiddie thought it would be cool to worship the lord of the underworld via E-Mail. Nothing to worry about.
 
I got one at work as well, but we have a footer that attaches itself to every email we send out. If I didn't originally send it out but it came from a some other computer spoofed, how did the footer get in there?

Click to expand...

maybe it's not spoofed, maybe something's changed on the system or application to allow usage of email to send back to itself...able to do an integrity check?

and if this is the case, would it mean that gmail servers have somehow been compromised?...hmm
 
has anyone checked the ip of where the e-mail was coming from? I am on comcast with a 24. ip but the e-mail came from an 208. ip that belonged to a mpower communications company in new york. Is there any pattern to what is going on?
 
Those are the origins of the two e-mails our company got.

All of it fake data 😛
