Strange Email

I got a strange email from lj all in Cyrillic. Most of the words I didn't know so uhm...yeah. Anyway, it prompted me to post out of curiosity. Anyone else get a random letter from lj in Cyrillic?

Not I, said the cat. Sounds like someone emailed spam to you. Mm, the internet, it makes its own spam. Blech.

Well, the reason I thought it may not be as spammy as normal was 1) I thought lj was bought by some people in an area that used Cyrillic (wasn't there a big to-do about that not horribly long ago?) and 2) all the the links in the email were legitimate links and not redirects. I kind of thought it looked as though they may have just sent out a notice of some sort in the wrong language.
