This is new 419er variant, I wonder what the next little hook will be:

From: HIGH KILLERS
Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 7:57 PM
Subject: I want you to read this message very carefully

Bad Day,

I want you to read this message very carefully, and keep the secret with you
till further notice, You have no need of knowing who i am, where am from,
till i make out a space for us to meet and discuss the whole situation if
you agree to my terms, i have being paid US$10,000.00 in advance to
terminate you with some reasons listed to me by my employers, it's one i
believe you call a close friend, i have followed you closely for one week
and three days now and have seen that you are innocent of the accusation,
Now do not contact the police or try to send a copy of this to them, because
if you do i will know as i have contact every where with the police and
other security agent, and might be pushed to do what i have being paid to
do, beside, this is the first time I turned out to be a betrayer in my job.

Certainly different.  I suspect it may be a bit more blunt than most
419, and be a straight demand for money.

Obviously tosh, though.

Now, if it was pretty much anyone else, I'd say it was unlikely.

Can I have the Ducati?

Well frankly I had to read it twice and raise an eyebrow in a Moore stylee.

If the senders read some recent transcrip from the High Court NI the weight
of irony might create a singularity fit to suck them up their own arseholes.

Normally I'd say yes but you are so bloody careless with motorbikes.

Not too busy to post here, I notice ...

I drove to London yesterday, and decided to go through a bit of Town to
SW19 (Shepherds Bush, Earls Court, Fulham, Putney etc), to experience
the traffic for the first time in several years.
The place is infested with suicidal psyclists and couriers, who make cab
drivers look soft.
Now, I don't get out of the way for anybody who tries it on blatantly,
so it was quite exciting altogether!

Oh sorry, fair enough ... but we must be realistic here - why should I

Rather good, that. String him along for a while. My guess is that you'll
be asked to pay a fee to get the contract removed, but it would be huge
fun to see what transpires next.

I can give you some creative suggestions, should you need any (unlikely,
I know).

I'm sure you have access to a Geiger counter? Make sure it's got a good
alpha detector.

Internal dosimetry preferred (alpha in the body can't be detected from
outside).

Hmmm, personally, although a few people probably want me out of the
way, they would never have the willpower to be able to save the ten
grand out of their dole cheques for long enough without blowing it
all on more beer/fags/drugs - so I suspect I am safe - but ever
vigilant!

The shocking thing is that these 419ers are making a mint while this

"Dear High Killer,

I am afraid your efforts have been in vain. I am now deeply in debt
after the recent Foot & Mouth outbreak has ruined my business. Thus I am
infact thinking of killing myself. However, this will be impractical to
you, since someone then will want their 10.000 back. I might be
persuaded to skip my plan, but then I obviously need a little capital to
start another business. If you leave 2.000 in a grey sealed envelope in
my mailbox before lunchtime tomorrow, I might think of trying to face
another year on this miserable planet."
