Send Me Money Or A Hit Man Will Kill You

It looks like the scammers are becoming desperate. All of the magazine articles, tv reports, websites, forums, etc. are getting people informed about all of the email scams being circulated by the millions, and we are becoming aware of their sick games. So, they have resorted to death threats. The newest email con states that there is a hit man out to kill you, but a deal can be worked out if you wire money immediately. Don't be scared. Do not even blink an eye over this type of stupidity. And if you have received an email like this, why are you opening it? I can spot a scam email without even opening it, simply by sender and subject line, and so should you. Matter of fact, I would tell the emailer to shove it. Here is an example of the types of emails I am referring to:
