It also - almost all the time - opens the door for me to throw away the email in case I am not the intended recipient.  
At least that's what I tell those that are trying to give me work.

  We're afraid we might have a problem safeguarding the information entrusted to us.
We hope this mass of lawyerspeak will scare you into taking responsibility for fixing our
problem, so we don't have to.
