Does even viewing these emails pose some kind of a risk?

Just viewing an e-mail (text) is secure.
Clicking on any link which is included in those kinds of e-mails is dangerous.
Also if any file like an image is attached viewing attached file might be also dangerous.

to me
Hello,

You received Deposit [BTC-E CODE]:

To Received The Code transaction, go to:
http://xxx/download/download.php?xxxxxxxxxxxx7e4c06b7818d13466dxxxxxx

Regards,
Administration of BTC-E.COM

Changed that code with the x´s.

What to do with this if anything ?

 It's a file called: [5019-169396]-[Bitcoin -wallet-Balance].zip
which contains a Trojan payload.  If you were to run the file, someone else would have access to your computer and you would in all likelihood lose any cryptocurrency currently in your possession.

You should

1) delete the e-mail and
2) immediately edit your post to remove that link as anyone in this forum clicking on it will download the trojan.  You are proliferating that malware by posting a link to it.

Anyone else who quoted the link should also edit it from their post.

Any chance you may have more info like alias i actually click by mistake. track pad sensitivity needed to be adjusted...lol  any how   i didn't open it but  I'm thinking   by the looks of my monitor and console logs   attempting p2p remote connections  and awful lot of activity  on the cpu and data.  any info would be great
