French scam? What are your thoughts??

We received this rather odd email today (direct, not through BC or the likes) and I'm just a bit suspicious. We've had 3 lots of people with the surname 'Martin' stay this summer: 2 that don't match their full name and the third was an off-the-streeter who stayed last week and just doesn't quite fit the profile (they were young friends for a start, not a couple with older person's names). Anyone else come across this? The use of the familiar 'tu' rather than the formal 'vous' makes me suspicious, too:
Email title: Probleme dificulte
Content: Bonjour ,
Puis-je t'expliquer un petit soucis ?
Si oui repond moi rapidement
Merci d'avance
Cordialement
(followed by full name and address which partially checks out to a location near Lyon... I say partially because I could only find a business address in the same town for the husband)
