There is another thread about this over here: Global Advisors Ltd. I received the e-mail as well on the an email I used only for LBC. At least, I'm really certain I never used it on BTCJam, BTC-e, etc.

I don't have localbitcoins account but I still received the phishing email. The deposit address is different from OP (not ending with 'ievD'), so they're sending different deposit addresses to everyone.
I've received some other phishing BTC investment scam emails in past too. Not sure how they got my email address.

How are they getting your email?
maybe its from some site about bitcoin that collect email..or a site that turn to scam and sell their email..
or maybe the owner or using it there are many posibillity
so its more likely they submit there email to the site..
but right now people is not that dumb to get scam in some email like that..
so i think it not a treat anymore but it annoying because they will never stop sending you email

I have also received that email. It went to my "not important stuff" email so I don't know where it actually came from
Here are the headers for anyone interested (with anything with my username replaced with):

I did too, I don't think its actually the real Global Advisors company, they seem more legit than this. I don't think anyone has sent to that address they said to send to, I thought it was legit until I saw the phishing thing, but I would not have invested just off some random email, I checked their website first and nothing of the sort was there.
September 15, 2015, 10:55:19 PM
How are they getting your email?
September 15, 2015, 09:55:36 PM
The bad thing is that email could scammed already someone,scammers getting better,using a reputation name to steal money.
September 15, 2015, 09:37:58 PM
Not sure if there anyone who fell for it but I'm sure there's always will be. Sometimes one or even two probably is enough for a work that only involves drafting and sending on emails.

I feel like this isn't the first time similar stuff to this.
I haven't received it yet.

It seems that this kind of email has been ongoing. Fortunately I did not recieve it. It's also related to BTCjam as far as I've seen.
September 15, 2015, 07:13:58 PM
I use a different email address for every service I subscribe (including BCT), so I know where they got my address. Today I got this one addressed to the address I use for my localbitcoins.com account (HTML formatting removed):
