Here’s a new one when it comes to spam. Apparently, if I don’t give AL-QUAEDA (btw, there’s no ‘u’ in al Qaeda, boys.) NETWORKS $10,000.00, they’re gonna kill me. Ooooo, I’m scared. And WHAT? That’s all I’m worth… a lousy 10 grand? Anyway, here’s their original pitch… spelling and grammar horrors included.
Attn,
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 we are the members of
the deadly networks in the world, which is the responsible for the bombing
of twin tower’s in America on Sept. 11th and the bombing of London
transport services on the July 7th (AL-QUAEDA NETWORKS), 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 whom you called your friend told us all about you and how you
supporting President George Bush, during the war against our Muslim
brothers
in Iraq and this person have spent a lot of money in this venture, This
person 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 this including bugging of your
phones with satellite tracking devices and they have carried out the
necessary investigation we needed for the operation on you, and if you
doubt this information am going to give you all the necessary information
about you back to you in your next reply so that you can believe me, and
my boys are really on you but I told them not to kill you that I will
like to contact you and see if your life is important to you and the one
of your family. 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 you this mail my
men are monitoring you and they are telling me everything about you.
Now do you want to LIVE OR DIE? Since all program has be made and draw to
kill you. Get back to me now if you are ready to pay some fees to spare
your Life, $10,000 is all you need to spend in this process you will
first of all Pay $7,000 and then I will send a tape to you which I
recorded in every discussion I had with the person, who wanted you dead
and as soon as you get the Tape, You will pay the remaining balance of
$3,000. If you are not ready for my help, then I will carry on with my
job straight-up, while we are doing this, we want to make America,
London, Spain, Germany a hell for those that support the President George
Bush war against Iraq, our Muslim
Country.
WARNING: DO NOT THINK OF CONTACTING THE POLICE OR EVEN TELLING ANYONE
BECAUSE I WILL NOW ,REMEMBER, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOU VERY WELL WANT YOU
DEAD!
I WILL EXTEND IT TO YOUR FAMILY, INCASE I NOTICE SOMETHING FUNNY ABOUT
YOUR TELLING THE SECURITY ABOUT IT BECAUSE A GOOD LOOK IS OUT YOU AT
MOMENT.
DO NOT COME OUT ONCE IT IS 7PM UNTIL I MAKE OUT TIME TO SEE YOU AND GIVE
YOU THE TAPE OF ALL 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……
THANKS,
AL-QUAEDA NETWORKS
Here’s a reminder for U.S. online companies that do business with international clients. 
This is definitely not my favorite look. I prefer Valentino, but next week I won’t have a choice — I’ll be sporting ‘haute Hospital couture’.
Spring has sprung in the Okanagan!
