Dot name scam or not, weird thing

[steveteva]

Today I receive an email to: [email protected]
Its weird because I've never set any dot name email account and register any lastname.name domin name.
How can I receive email sent to [email protected], who did create this email and how can it be sent to me (knowing my exact name and first name)

It' maybe a scam or phishin, maybe all email sent to this adress is also sent to someone else.

How to ask the person to remove my name....

I tried the whois but no results.

How could you receive the email if you never set the address up?

EDIT: I suck at typing; I'm sorry about that!

You need the full header information. Its sounds very much like junk to me or a specific phish which is worse

Yes that's why I m really surprise. I've check the source code of my email to see if it wasn't just hidding my actual email and not at all, I've double check all my email account on my computer and no dot name.

The fisrt email I've receive is from JanRain.com. According to their message they provide dot name and technology I really don't understand.

I tried to test and send message to [email protected] and Yes I receive it each time.

Here is a part of Janrain message:

Perhaps they want to get used to it, giving it out to your colleagues and then bye bye or give money
