And if it was somebody else buying it, why put in your actual email address rather than a fake one? The goal here is to keep you from knowing you were charged until they get the goods.

This is odd..
Odd indeed, and I had the same question - 'why would they send an email sayin' I bought something'??? It didn't make sense..

I've got Lifelock - and they checked right away this am but found nothing.. Not much the bank can really do.. I had them immediately cancel the card and will be issued a new one with a new number (obviously), to arrive here in about 4-5 days...

Cops won't do diddly for a measly $50.. I will check with the FTC though... never thought of that one.
