This is worse than recieiving emails from the so called Director of the FBI Robert Swan Mueller. The scarry thing is who says that this email is still not from him only him using another name to scam either myself or any one you.
Does anyone know who to put a block on these types of emails so that you never recieve there filty threats. If anyone know please do get back in touch. I would really love to get rid of this filthy garbage that is causing viruses and trojans on my computer. Thanks Below is the recent email that was just recieved.
