How could you receive an e-mail addressed to another person?

I suppose it could be some one's maiden name. I usually ignore these Trumps but this seemed so strange when I don't have a single Campbell in my tree.

I often get the email we have found connections to other trees and the when I look all the trees listed I have already been in contact with the owners and we have opened trees with each other .Waste of time !!

Is it perhaps the maiden name of someone called Helen in your tree?

I personally ignore all those emails from GR as more often than not already discounted the 'matches' they send me.

And yes I often get some obsure name with no connection to my tree.

I've just got an email about a Family Trump. It was for Helen Campbell but I don't have her in my tree. Should I look and see if she ought to be there. Are GR doing my research for me? Has any one else had these false Trumps?
