I got an unsolicited email claiming to be from the store "Brick24 - MEGASTORE"
in Germany (a store I have never had anything to do with) that claims to offer
a "b2b opportunity" and contains an attached PDF listing a bunch of sets and
prices.

Is this spam from the actual linked store (brick24), spam from someone pretending
to be that store or an outright scam?
