This is called spoofing, and is absolutely nothing to worry about. In fact, it is a very common technique used be spammers who know that people will read an email that they receive from themselves.





Any remotely tech-savvy person can send an email that appears to be form anyone they want (including the person who will be receiving the email). It is not evidence that you, or anyone you know has a virus no their machine.
