Just got back from lunch to find this email...
Hello,
This is the only way I could contact you for now,I want you to be very careful about this and keep this secret with you until I make out space for us to see. You have no need of knowing who I am or where I am from.I know this may sound very surprising to you but it’s the situation.I have been paid some ransom in advance to terminate you with some reasons listed to me by my employer. It’s someone I believe you call a friend, I have followed you closely for a while now and have seen that you are innocent of the accusations he leveled against you. Do not contact the police or try to send a copy of this to them,because if you do, I will know,and I might be pushed to do what I have been paid to do.Besides, this is the first time I turn out to be a betrayer in my job. I took pity on you,that is why I have made up my mind to help you if you are willing to help yourself.
Now listen,I will arrange for us to see face to face,but before that, I need $10,000. I will come to your home or you determine where you wish we meet; I repeat, do not arrange for the cops and if you play hard to get, it will be extended to your family. Do not set any camera to cover us or set up any tape to record our conversation, my employer is in my control now. Payment details will be provided for you to make a part payment of $5,000 first,which will serve as guarantee that you are ready to you co-operate,then i will post a copy of the video tape that contains his request for me to terminate you which will be enough evidence for you to take any legal action against him before he employs another person for the job. You will pay the balance of $5,000 once you receive the tape.
Warning; do not contact the police, make sure you stay indoors once it is 7.30pm until this whole thing is sorted out,if you neglect any of these warnings, you will have yourself to blame. You do not have much time, so get back to me immediately.
Note:I will advise you keep this to yourself alone, not even a friend or a family member should know about it because it could be one of them.
Regard
Don Gunshot.
Well you're in trouble now, aren't you! 😉
Nasty scam though isn't it - no doubt some gullibles will be living in fear after reading it.
I am seriously pissed with that useless sod. He told me it would be done by now.
You should be flattered that some one hates you enough to have you taken out! Pay up quick........
BD I'm sure it can't have been you - he said it was a friend...

If you name your child that, what do you expect them to grow up to be..
Note:I will advise you keep this to yourself alone,

not that great an employer, then. 😕
I'll act on your behalf. Send [i]me[/i] the money and I'll make sure he gets it...
Wow, that's a particularly unpleasant spam.
For a small fee, I'll take care of everyone involved. And I'll make it look like an accident. Like they fell in love with the man spider.
Obviously Lance has been paying closer attention to your posting than you realised.
Can I have your bike?
That's really quite nasty. I'd report it
Get the A-Team in.
Seriously didn't you get a ****ty mail not that long ago?
It's quite funny, except that it's really, really not. I think reporting it may not be an over-reaction.
