This appears to be a forged Sender address, and a form of phishing I 
hadn't seen before.  It didn't ask for personal information, but asked 
to purchase gift cards take pictures of them and email the pictures.

As I was out of my office, I didn't have an easy way to look at email 
headers as I would at home.  The request sounded strange, and the fact 
that the Sender address was 'Jc Chupack' instead of 'JC Chupack' was a 
bit suspicious.
