To the Community,

 

Some members of our community have received a disturbing email purported to be from a ?hit person?.  The email claims that the sender has been hired to kill the email recipient but the sender will not do so if the email recipient gives the hit person money.  Although we are not sure how widely the email has been distributed, we do know that it has also been sent to individuals in the Conway community and UCA.

This email has been in circulation for some time and has been confirmed as an internet fraud scheme by the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). The email has also been the subject of IC3 warnings issued in December 2006 and January 2007. 

As with any email scam it is very important that you do not provide the sender any personal or financial information. You should also report the receipt of an email of this type to the IC3 by using the following link: http://www.ic3.gov/, so that it can be further investigated.
