I just got this in my e-mail. I didn't order anything. The Microsoft address looks legitimate but the others don't. What is X-BOX LIVE? and who is dakota baker?

Someone signed up for xbox live and put in the wrong address.

XBox live is a gaming network for the Microsoft XBox.

Check your credit cards and debit cards but probably it's pretty harmless.
 
Could be phishing.

Someone's going to e-mail back and say, "I didn't order XBox Live."

Then the next e-mail from the sender is, "Sure, we can fix that, just give us your credit card number and we'll credit that right away!"
