If you get similar, do not open the attachment or click on the embedded link - the legitimate SSC site says they've had lots of complaints today about this scam and that the attached 'invoice' contains a virus.

The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.
