Free DLC being pushed out to all current owners of the game through artificially created 'orders' for it in order to utilise the standard communication and distribution mechanisms?

Had the same email, they could have atleast tried harder with a modern game like the new rainbow 6 seige!?

Identity theft...

Have you tried logging into uplay to see if the dlc has been credited to your account?
Obviously, don't click anything in the email 'til you've checked, but I think Skeeter's explanation is more likely than Mr Badger's.

You should probably burn your computer and the rest of the room to the ground, just in case. I probably will just because I've read this webpage that references the email.
