Received a spam e-mail addressed to a different person

I received an email obviously to my e-mail address  but addressed to someone else.

Any one else had this.

    It is a common tactic of spammers to use the blind copy field (bcc) when generating spam emails.  This way the list of email addresses to which the spam is sent cannot be seen by the individual recipients.
