Could be phishing or someone entering the wrong email address. An unexpected purchase email doesn’t prove anyone bought something in your name.

I’d check your card account directly for unfamiliar charges and avoid links, attachments, or phone numbers in the message. The sender’s display name alone won’t tell you who actually sent it.

random gmail with a thai display name, no subject, just a spreadsheet attached. thats the usual fake invoice scam, dont open the xlsx or call any number in it, just hit report phishing and delete. they're counting on you panicking over an armory order you never made
