In the TO: section it will have the wrong email address or no email at all. I don't understand why it would be in my email box then.

They used the BCC field. (Blind Carbon Copy). You get a copy when your email address is NOT in the TO field, when it is in the CC or BCC field.
SPAM is a real big hassle, and it is GOING to get worse. Consider getting a Spam filter program, or a service that does this for you... If you are using Yahoo email, then use the SPAM button to report spam every time. This helps everybody, and you will get less.
You should have a secondary email address for registering for products.
Discourage people from sending JOKES, or including you in their long list of recipients. For gosh sakes, you don't need to get the virus that someone else got.
Discourage people from using a FREE Greeting card service. What do you think? These services make money somehow... They MUST sell their list to provide you with the free service.
NEVER buy from an offer that you got from SPAM... I mean, really... One purchase will justify their work and help to make them profitable.

Your address should have been placed in the BCC: section, that is why you can't see your address.

It is sent to you and thousands of other people. The information in the To and From fields can be forged very easily.
