I get them a lot too but rarely see the contents of them as they all get put into my spam folder. However I did get one from Apple that slipped by and said my account was locked. It was as real as it could be and only after going directly to my account to find out it wasn't locked could I confirm. I could see many unaware falling for it.
Another good one. I just have to send them $158 first:

I wouldn't worry that much. I get them in waves too and have been over the last 10 plus years. Your email address is the one of the least secure details about you out there. Retailers routinely sell your info, not nefariously mind you, but they do. Once that happens it gets passed on and on and on in batches and passed on around the world. Their are places overseas where people sit there with a computer and a list and get paid to send them. Believe me, they have no clue who they are sending it to. I've even seen emails I received where my address is CC'd with a bunch of other similarly spelled or numbered emails in alphabetic and numeric order which tells me they are sending them off an organized list.
At this point 99.9% of mine end up in my spam folder. Are yours coming straight to your inbox? If so just keep sending them to your spam box and then erase them from there. Also, set you email app up so it only shows text and then if you want to see any more contents you can allow it on a case by case basis. What email service are you using?
