bogus e-mail

I just discovered an e-mail in my bulk folder; under the "from"
heading was my own e-mail address. Thinking I'd made a mistake I
opened it and it turned out to be from somwhere else. Has anyone else
had a similar experience?

And, if this is the first time the OP has seen it must mean their SPAM

Now would be a good time to run a virus check
