So, assuming the payment amount and any other specific details of the email are accurate, I'd assume that they have either 1) seen some of the details of the sale, maybe from the merchant's side or paypal (less likely to me) or 2) they have seen your email with confirmation (which I also think is less likely unless they have your email account user/pass info.
My guess is that they've got a small hook in at the vendor end that allows them to see superficial info about sales.

the vendor end seems most likely but a scan on his unit is the easiest thing to do
How would he address this to the vendor? If he sends an Email it can be seen...
