No!  You are not the only one!  I get those too and they are totally weird!  I think it's a scheme.

You are swimming in DANGEROUS water everytime you open one of those. They are a scam and many times have Trojans with all kinds of nasty computer viruses. This I know from experience. Don't fall for them. I know some of them really play with your heart strings but they aren't real.
