Scams like these

Gmail and Hotmail do ok for spam, but I also have an old account with Yahoo... And they are absolutely garbage at blocking anything.
 
Woke up this morning and found a notification from google wallet of an Amex payment made overnight to Atlas Coffee Company (i dont drink coffee, and the company doesnt deliver to Aus). No sign of any charge in my Amex account online, but rang Amex anyway and they've cancelled the card, and are deleting the online account associated with it.

An hour later and i get a delivery notice failure on my main email account for an email i never sent so i assume someone spoofed my email address. In the body of the email is what looks like a Facebook notification for a new device login in India using an Iphone.

Coincidence that they happened so close or are they related? 🤔🤷‍♀️
