RE: Strange mail with number in subject line and body

["Poof" <poof () fansubber com>]

Yeah, I've been receiving these as well for the last day or two. It's really
getting quite annoying as I don't know if they're meant to... Spam, Infect,
or just annoy the living heck out of you.

*_* What are these kiddies trying to do with this junk?

Subject: Strange mail with number in subject line and body

We have received a few strange emails (from Korea and France) which lists a
three character number in the subject line and a different three digit
character number in the body, no attachments.

The sender (from field) has been spoofed and displays the receivers name (to
field).

I did a search on google but could not find any further information.
Has any seen or know where/why these emails are being received?  Maybe a
sdbot infection on zombie PC?
