I received one of these messages as well, it's spam, when this was sent to me, the terrible spelling gave it away as a spam message.., but on the bright side, the senders are claiming to be a Sony board executive, so we can grief report the senders for impersonating an SCE official.

I have actually gotten this message twice once from skyboy40 and again from stegrat.i looked up  marlon young,nothing to do with Sony. Besides Sony would not use a chain letter.

Are people really stupid enough to think for even a second that these messages may be genuine?

You would be surprised! It seems that common sense has gone out the window in the last 10 years.
