Heroin… or Death?

This morning I got an email from some jackass referring to himself as Timothy Stuff. Already intrigued by the subject line: “Hi Moira Buy Heroin, cocaine and other shit from timothystuff,” since, you know, I buy all of my illegal drugs online, I opened the email to read the following:
“Welcome to the site timothystuff dot com, it’s us again, now we extended our offerings, here is a list:
1. Heroin, in liquid and crystal form.
2. Rocket fuel and Tomohawk rockets (serious enquiries only).

Rampant misspellings aside, I was thrilled to know that I could buy both liquid and crystal heroin, tomahawk missiles, and gay sex slaves all from the same dealer. Screw all that calling around, I’m going straight to Timothy for all my, uh, stuff.
Yeah. Right. I immediately dismissed the email as some sort of weirdo spam and ignored it. Only, a few hours later, I got this one from the same person:
“I am very sorry for you Moira, is a pity that this is how your life is going to end as soon as you don’t comply. As you can see there is no need of introducing myself to you because 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.
But I give you a chance. Call my neighbor 315-678-2789 and say password “there is time to save my skin” and if that would sound convincing, I will forget about you.
Tell him this password for Timothy Sinclair (be sure it is not my real name).
WARNING: DO NOT THINK OF CONTACTING THE POLICE OR EVEN TELLING ANYONE
BECAUSE I WILL KNOW.”
Freaky, right? Lucky for me, I’m currently out of the state, so even if Timothy “Killer” Sinclair showed up at my house looking to put a hit on my ass, he’d find only my roomies (sorry, guys!) and my cat.
At first, I racked my brain trying to think of who might be angry enough with me to pay a hitman. Was it my fella, annoyed at not being able to hit this until I got back to Providence? Nah, that didn’t make sense… he coulda spend his dime on a pros instead of a killer.
Had someone overhead me talking shit on his or her ass and decided to end my gossipy ways once and for all?
Maybe, just maybe, that fella from whom I stole an accordion before screaming at him over the phone that he was, and I quote, a “junky asshole” managed to scrounge up enough cash to order the hit? Nah… he’s way too cheap for that.
So, I thought, duh, google the asshole.
Apparently some sort of Independence Day prank, Mr. Timothy Stuff Sinclair, has been sending out these emails all day. Respondents on Whocalled.us have determined that the sicko hacked into Monster.com and used that information to send out these rather scary emails.
Anyone else out there get it? Seems a lot of people on the net did. Chances are that enough people out there have already reported this email to get the sender in some serious trouble, but you can report the incident to both the Internet Crime Complaint Center and your local FBI office:
FBI Boston
Suite 600
One Center Plaza
Boston, Massachusetts 02108
boston.fbi.gov
(617) 742-5533
Or, you could just call the phone numbers listed in the ad from a blocked number and have a little fun of your own. Your call.

Did he also offer you an investment opportunity relating to funds in an overseas bank bust needing to be claimed?People still fall for that.There was apiece on Dateline where some poor shlub in upstate Ny got hiimself involved in receiving stolen property based on emails from a non-existent “fiancee”using bogus photos-he never met or spoke to her,but managed to turn his life upside down.Sad.

Speaker Says:
I recieved this email in the UK.
Reported the shit bag to the police.
I’m not gullable enaough to believe him/her but there are a fair few people out there that this sort of email could scare the life out of.
He’s probably relishing in the publicity he is receiving.
Let see if he’s laughing as loud when he gets his arse nicked!
