I use the name in the first line when there is some people in the cc (or bcc :) ) but it's a request for someone in particular:

> Hi John!

> Can you send me X for the Y project?

In particular when the people in the cc (or bcc :) ) don't have the info about X but is interested in Y.

(I use also "Hi everyone!" when I want to make it super clear that the email has been sent to a lot of persons.)

You sound like a perfectly reasonable person, rather than a scammer.
