Subject: OT But funny - my first email death threat.


XENOPHONZ ( ) posted Mon, 27 August 2007 at 4:52 PM

Quote - You would be avenged 100 fold! Their mad because we made fun of them and laughed at how stupid these emails are. : ) 

 

shrug  They couldn't care less about that.  If one person in every 2000 responds to them, then it's been more than worth the effort from their point of view.

It takes at least 2000 before anyone answers a death threat. I wonder what the going rate is. I wonder what they say. That's the one I wanna read.

OMG.....I don't know whether to laugh or grunt.....is this what people really have lowered themselves to do......glad it is fake because I would not want to loose you, but man oh man....this is an all time low for humans.  Sharen

*If one person in every 2000 responds to them, then it's been more than worth the effort from their point of view.

*Sad, but true.   I don't know if I have had any assasinators after me, because I never click on anything that looks like spam, but I'm a bit disappointed that I have made only £450,000 out of my lottery habit today.   Usually, I expect to collect a few million squid at least.   It's hardly worth opening my inbox for anything less.

Suppose this Hypothetical, what if the message is for a server host. The assasins are hackers that have been paid to shut you down and they never miss. The way you send that message is by planting a bot on their server and send a few thousand or million emails that say that, arriving on shore is when they'll access begin the process(the whole thing a cryptic message not intended for you). The other is just to get people to respond so you can sell their email addresses. Either way it's rotten bussiness. But, the money in the assasin for hire is about the amount you might get for shutting down a major server or should I say not shutting it down. Who realistically thinks they'd bring that much? Really, what are you a banker or a super ninja?

Here's one I got today. Doesn't it tug on your heart strings, LOL!!!!!

How are you and your family? Hope all is well, my name is Sgt.Jefferson Timothy; I am an American soldier, serving in the military with the army 2nd infantry division. With a very desperate need for assistance, I have summed up courage to contact you, I know you will be surprise, I just hope you will assist us. I found your contact particulars in an address journal. I am seeking your kind assistance to move the sum of US$21m (twenty one million United States dollars) to you in United States; as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in your care until I complete my service here.

Source of money:

Some money in US dollars were discovered in dog kennels at a farm house and guest houses in an estate near one of Saddam old palaces in Baghdad, Iraq during an operation, and it was agreed by Sgt. Paul, Sgt.1st Class Daniel and I that some part of this money be shared among us before informing anybody about it. Since both of them saw the money first, they did the informing, while I played the outsider to protect our interest. This was quite an illegal thing to do, but I tell you what? No compensation can make up for the risk we have taken with our lives in this hell hole, in which my brother in-law was killed by a road side bomb last time You will find the story of this money on the web addresses below;

The above figure was given to me as my share, and to conceal this kind of money became a problem for me, even after the initial probe of all soldiers of our command which I was cleared from; so with the help of a British contact working here and his office enjoy some immunity, I was able to get the package out to a safe location entirely out of trouble spot. and it was believes that it belongs to a British/American medical doctor who died in a raid here in Iraq, and before giving up, trusted me to hand over the package to his family in United State. 

I have now found a much secured way of getting the package out of Iraq to States for you to pick up, and I will discuss this with you when I am sure that you are willing to assist me, and I believe and pray that my money will be well secured in your hand.

I want you to tell me how much you will take from this money for the assistance you will give to me. One passionate appeal I will make to you is not to discuss this matter with anybody, should you have reasons to reject this offer, please and please destroy this message as any leakage of this information will be too bad for us soldier here in Iraq and tarnish the reputation of other services men.

I do not know how long we will remain here, and I have been shot, wounded and survived two suicide bomb attacks by the special grace, this and other reasons I will mention later has prompted me to reach out for help, I honestly want this matter to be resolved immediately,please contact me as soon as possible for now my personal email  <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:jefferson.timothy2007@hotmail.com">jefferson.timothy2007@hotmail.com</a>, as this is my only way of communication until I specify otherwise.

Thanks for not taking it the wrong way. I just don't know how much good it does to report emails like the one you got. The authorities probably get flooded with reports of them and tracking them all down well, you know. They did a report one time on the news about an old woman that got more than a few and finally reported it.  The cops traced it back to some kid with a cruel sense of humor who had been sending out hundreds or thousands of them(this was some years ago). You would think in today's times with terrorism and all that people would be smarter than that. I really hope though it was just a joker with a cruel sense of humor. People sometimes just don't think about what's happening. Later,
