You're not the only one getting these e-mails. I had another user talk to me about them.

This is very upsetting. If we supply game development tools to extremist countries, it's just a matter of time before they use them against us in multiplayer combat...

I have heard reports that insurgents are forming Counterstrike teams as we speak, bent on deploying bombs and holding hostages."

"Mah fellow 'mericuns, it saddens mah heart to learn that our own citizens have been sending weapuns, armor, and bombs to our enemies abroad via the interwebs. Mah friend Senator Ted Stevens has assured me this is possible due to the tube nature of the interwebs, and the long thin shape of guns.I have heard reports that insurgents are forming Counterstrike teams as we speak, bent on deploying bombs and holding hostages."

Nah, if they were nigerian they'd be claiming to be in possession of a multi-million dollar account from some deposed relative, but can't access it to funnel it out of the country because of a bank clerk who's demanding a full copy of TGB pro before he'll release it. Oh, and he needs your bank number, pin, and social sec so he can send the cash to your account.

"Dearest friend,
I am a Nigerian game developer who needs your help in a problem I having am. I have an inheritance locked up in a virtual world account upon one of the many games popular to the MMOG neighborhood. I am seeking your assistance in acquiring the tools used in the making of this virtual world. If you can just send them to me, I would be most greatful and would be more than happy to benefit you with some percentage of the funds from my virtual world bank account.
Please dearest send me the source code and the serial numbers and all access logins for your World building tools so that I can get the riches we both so greatly deserve"
