A very scared friend received this email. I told her to forward it to me & I would post it on VD to see if anyone could tell her where it came from. Anyone here get one or know anything about it or what should be done about. I've seen a lot of wierd stuff, but never anything like this.

Hello
I am very sorry for you is a pity that this is how your life is going to end
as soon as you don't comply. As you can see there is no need of introducing
myself to you because I don't have any business with you, my duty as I am
mailing you now is just to KILL you and I have to do it as I have already been
paid for that.
Someone you call a friend wants you Dead by all means, and the person have
spent a lot of money on this, the person also came to us and told me that he
wanted you dead and he provided us with your name ,picture and other necessary
information's we needed about you. So I sent my boys to track you down and
they have carried out the necessary investigation needed for the operation on
you, and they have done that but I told them not to kill you that I will like
to contact you and see if your life is Important to you or not since their
findings shows that you are innocent.
I called my client back and ask him of your email address which I didn't tell
him what I wanted to do with it and he gave it to me and I am using it to
contact you now. As I am writing to you now my men are monitoring you and they
are telling me everything about you.
Now do you want to LIVE OR DIE? As someone has paid us to kill you. Get back
to me now if you are ready to pay some fees to spare your life, $15,000 is all
you need to spend You will first of all pay $8,000 then I will send a tape to
you which i recoeded every discusion i hade with the person who wanted you
dead and as soon as you get the tape, you will pay the remaining $7,000. If
you are not ready for my help, then I will carry on with my job straight-up.
WARNING: DO NOT THINK OF CONTACTING THE POLICE OR EVEN TELLING ANYONE BECAUSE
I WILL KNOW.REMEMBER, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOU VERY WELL WANT YOU DEAD! I WILL
EXTEND IT TO YOUR FAMILY, INCASE I NOTICE SOMETHING FUNNY.
DO NOT COME OUT ONCE IT IS 7:PM UNTIL I MAKE OUT TIME TO SEE YOU AND GIVE YOU
THE TAPE OF MY DISCUSSION WITH THE PERSON WHO WANT YOU DEAD THEN YOU CAN USE
IT TO TAKE ANY LEGAL ACTION. GOOD LUCK AS I AWAIT YOUR REPLY VIA

It is a sadistic spin on the "Send me $8,000 and I will give you a cut of the millions my late dictator father left to me."?
