I've seen this kind of email when i check my spam, they claim from blockchain.info, bitcointalk.org, xapo, coinbase, bitpay and many more. In fact, because i use Google Mail, i sometimes see advertising about fake investment when search about bitcoin or open my email.
I think we needs to make people aware with their received email, they should do research or read the email carefully before click, open or contact whether it's fake investment or regular email spam.

Didn't know where should I post this other than in meta, you know every time we receive a PM in forum we also get an email notifying us with the PM inside right? and it shows as "Bitcoin Forum" and we might immediately open to see inside.
Now since I have a very sensitive spam filtering and such greatness Cheesy I have received emails with same sender title only the content is the usual %500 profit on investment BS, just like all the ones with "Blockchain.info" claiming to triple your btc and says just send your coins to this add usual BS not that I open any of them anyways just wanted to let you all know.
Because theymos is not the type of a person to share his profits Cheesy.

Thanks for sharing with the forum, unfortunately some people are dumb AF & will click on dodgy links or open dodgy files that you or I would flag up as BS instantly.

People PLEASE be aware of what you are clicking on or opening.
