There is a new email scam where people are receiving emails with poor use of English threatening people's lives, telling them that they have been paid to kill the person receiving the email, then they write back saying if you give them $40,000 they may spare your life.

Someone I know received one of these and I thought I'd pass it along. It is titled "Assassantion Attempt".

18,000 of these identical emails were mass mailed out on 5/5/07.

Here is the first one:

***********************

Hello ++++++++,

I wish to let you know that I have been paid by a client to assasinate you at convenience,and I have signed a contract of $650,000 yesterday for this. I have never met you before,but they gave me the full description of your identity and contact,together with your photograph which my boys have used to trace you.

The reason why they want you Dead is not disclosed to me as I was not allowed to know, but you are now not better that the dead ok.

My BOYS are now contantly watching you, they are following you-home,office,everywhere.....,you go and they are waiting for my instruction to terminate you.And they will strike at convenience.

; THIS IS MY MESSAGE-

LISTEN VERY WELL !!!! The Police cannot do much to help you out in this right now because you are being watched,any such attempt is very risky cause you will push us to terminate your life without option. Your calls are not safe also. In fact you are traced.

GOODLUCK!!!

**********************************

Then they send this one:

******************************

I demand a ransom of $40,000 fourty thousand US dollars to demobilise my boys first, then I tell you a safe ground to meet me so that we can talk. Do you think am kidding with you,the simple truth remains that I just wanted to give you a chance to live once more....but be warned do not misunderstand previllege ok!

***********************************

So if anyone receives such an email, know it's a scam, from the use of English I have to wonder if the Nigerians are up to new tricks.

More likely some schmuck from a 'shitty little country' in the middle east.

Hell they can't be responsible for everything, plus their use of English is much better than the average American's.

JOY AFTER SURFERNESS

This is to inform you that the Federal Government of Nigeria in collaboration with African Union have decided to favour you after a series of meeting held by our president Olusegun

Obasanjo with the American counterpart President George W. Bush which he directed our president to ensure that our Government compensate all the foreigners who have been duped or

scammed by the African imposters and hoodlums.

Meanwhile, during our investigation we discovered that you are among the victims, and for this invent I was directed to inform you by the Federal Government of Nigeria that you have been compensated with the sum of $9million which a certified bank draft has been issued in your name.

Therefore, you are advised to contact the personal adviser to the president on financial maters MR MARTHINS JOE on his direct Email: (marthins_joe229@yahoo.dk) you should contact him with your personal data for reconfirmation if you are ready to receive your compensation amount of $9million.

Furthermore, you are advised to co-operate with him to ensure you did not have any delay in receiving the certified bank draft as directed by the Federal Government of Nigeria and remember to ignore every communication from any group or individual regarding your inheritance fund because the scammers and imposters are all over the whole world looking for whom to devour.

Your co-operation and understanding will be very much appreciated by the office. Yours faithfully,

JOHN BOOMA.

Chief Accountant General of Federation Federal Republic of Nigeria

The only spelling issue a pro assassin should be concerned with should be the name and address of his target because it would be bad to assassinate someone else. Today's identify theft scams make the job of assassins harder and riskier.

These are probably Nigerian email scams. I've received hundreds.

I used to write back and tell them I could have them killed for $5, since that was the going rate for ugly, smelly, stupid Nigerians.

None ever responded.

I wonder how much someone would charge to disrupt business as usual at a Lagos internet cafe?

In fact, I bet I could take up a collection and make some energetic, resourceful, innovative Nigerian rich if he or she can close every net cafe in the Nigerian capital!

Everything from power surges to skunk smell could be used.

The trick is to convince the former scam victims to kick in one more time, and just to make sure they do I'll write it up to look like another irresistible tidbit of Nigerian 419....

Nah, their use of Englsh is atrocious in many instances. Plus, the fact that they hate goy really oozes from them like pus from a festering wound.

The person who got the assanation email wrote back and asked what kind of a lame hitman is he who would take $40,000 over $650,000?

You need a new spam filter...I never get junk like this. Ergo; hard for me to comment.
