   hit you first before any other person in your family. I have had a
   means to cover their meeting discussions on how to eliminate you,
   right now I have the tape and I know you would like to have this
   tape so that you can solve the problem before they take your life. I
   use to be one of them but now I decided not to allow you die this
   way for some reasons. I have the tape and you need not to report the
   case to police yet, we need to arrange on how you can get the tape
   immediately .If you report this case to police or any security
   service, mind you they will not spare your life and family reply me
   immediately..do not try to run because they are monitoring you I
   know the time they planned to hit you, you need to reply me
   immediately..you are closely monitored!!!

The latest 419 variant?

I would spend any money I might give them on renewing my CWP.

Not the first time I've seen 'threat mail' 419 though the other one 
was a much slicker job, and actually had my user a bit worried


Just the same, thanks for posting this, I'll add a few rules to catch it. 
Don't want my more-senior clients worried by this crud
