"Join Twitter now for free!  [...] This message was sent by a Twitter user who entered your email address."

Yeah, right.  Who the *%&$%@#@!(&( is Emma? I don't know anyone named Emma.  To the best of my knowledge, nobody named Emma has my email address that didn't harvest it off a mailing list somewhere or other or out of somebody's address book.  And whoever this fictional Emma is, "she" entered the same email address twice.

So now Twitter have become spammers...  great business model, guys.  Let me know how that works out for you.

Quite possibly. My system dumps it in Spam rather than Virus as it does seem to come from Facebook itself rather than some third party. Either way, it's Unwanted™.
