Authenticated records of purchase confirmation emails were properly admitted, not for their truth, but for the nonhearsay purpose of showing that defendant’s identifying information, including his address, phone number, last name, nickname and date of birth, appeared in a particular email account that was associated with a fraudulent credit card application. In the context of the case, the contents of these emails constituted circumstantial evidence linking defendant to that account (see People v Boswell, 167 AD2d 928 [4th Dept 1990], lv denied 77 NY2d 876 [1991], lv dismissed 81 NY2d 785 [1993]; see also People v Lynes, 49 NY2d 286, 291-293 [1980]). In any event, any error in receipt of this evidence was harmless (see People v Crimmins, 36 NY2d 230 [1975]). Concur — Sweeny, J.P., Acosta, Andrias and Moskowitz, JJ.
