Could be. It would be a real pain to change my own e mail address. Maybe that is my only option? I believe I am vigilant. I know even if it comes from a known contact, it may not be safe.

Check the headers of the email

You need to build spam filters for them based on the address

Thanks. I have done that see previous post.

I get such oddball emails from time to time from a couple of my contacts ... they now just go directly to my Gmail spam folder. (Other emails from them are OK - it's just the ones that look oddball that go to spam. I guess Gmail's heuristics are pretty good).

That is just the to and from, not the headers of the email. https://sendpulse.com/support/glossary/email-header

That is how I identified the sender e mail address, company name, ISP and physical location. Doesn't really help me.

So now you know its just spoofing. All you can really do is set up a decent spam filter that blocks based on key words. Assuming you already have SPF and DKIM records already set up

Thanks for your comments:
Not so easy to set up a spam filter. As you may note from the two examples I posted there is no common key word. 
SPF and DKIM records would be quite laborious to set up and I am not sure how that would help as there does not appear to be a common identifier? A bit like a sledge hammer for a walnut.
