Wow, spammers are either becoming really desperate or totally creative. Here's a threatening email I received today:

Subject: She has already gone to hospital! ! !Hello, info.
Listen to me carefully, i don't know what your name is, but i'll find you and i'll cripple you, because this is you who tempted her!!!

What did you do to the poor girl? Geez Raam, your so mean. LOL
What worries me is when I think about someone like my mom receiving a message like this. She might actually mistake it for a real message. It could genuinely make her worry and cause her anxiety.
It’s bad enough the spammers spread viruses and phish for identities. Why can’t they just leave our humanity alone?
