I just can't believe the sickos out there. I also would have thought the FBI would have been a little more....something????

[Passionfruition]

Oh my gosh - that's scary. I'd pee my pants if I got an email like that! Very smart of you to google that and what a relief to find out it's "just" a scam. Yikes!!!!! How cruel.

[AngieDoogles]

Wow Judy! That's horrible! The things people will say and do to get money... :mad:

I think that there's a clue in the e-mail for us. He can't talk properly. I believe that people from England can put sentences together better than that!:interesting: If someone sent that to me, I'd be laughing my head off!!!!!! :sidesplit: Who wants to hire a hit man to kill a farmer and his family!!!!!:scratchhead:

[Tink]

How insane.

Diana, didnt you watch westerns as a kid?!?
Some sheep farmer... dirty varmint that they are, probably wants to drive you off your claim to let his filthy critters eat your pastures down to the roots.

ROFL

[DianaB]

I had forgotten about "those" kind of farmers!!!!:eek:

:sidesplit: :sidesplit: :sidesplit:

[judy]

Don't forget that he's the only seer in London! ?????

I wasn't scared - it was so obviously a scam (by the terrible English, the fact that I'm not really important enough to murder, and I'm not one of those varmint farmers) - but, you're right Janet. The FBI, although they certainly are aware of these scams, do nothing other than to tel you to ignore it, don't ever answer them and delete it. I suppose if you're freaking out they calm you down.

I think when someone emails you that they're going to murder you though, they should at least ask you to forward the email. I offered!

[Tink]

Oh Diana, you can never let your guard down with THAT kind around! LOL

Judy, isn't it sad that there are people so dense they'd actually fall for that though? I mean DANG I wonder who helps them boot up their computer? ;)

Now that's the real problem. Hit me once, you're a fool - hit me twice...I'm the fool.
How stupid are people anyway?

My father had an aunt who fell for a scam years ago. We all felt bad for her, but couldn't believe that she was that dumb!

I got a new one today - some other nonsense. I did respond with

"May the fleas of 1000 camel infest your armpits."

I know you're not supposed to respond, but I can't resist. I love that answer. Got it from another site.

[Tink]

:yelrotflmao: Judy showing her spunk. LOL You go girl!

[DianaB]

"May the fleas of 1000 camel infest your armpits."

That should teach him not to mess around with you!!!!!:sidesplit: :sidesplit: :sidesplit:

[judy]

It is one of my favs! I think I'm going to send it to the English murderer too.
There's a picture that goes with it of a funny flea.

[AngieDoogles]

How funny Judy! I love your spunk (perfect description btw Tink!)

[judy]

So I sent the flea message to the London murderer. He actually responded!

Something about "Okay so you're f***ing with us. Now we're really going to get you.

He's from aol. I wonder where to send them these emails. I'm going to google them.

This guy is such a loser!

[DianaB]

I can't believe these people!!!!! :mad: Do they think we're stupid or what?!?!

[AngieDoogles]

LOL Judy. Does he really think you feel threatened by that?? :sidesplit:

[judy]

So how big a loser is he anyway?
