Amusing Spam Threats

Do you ever go to the Junk Mail/Spam folder only to find some email with a dire warning in the title?  Some of these are really funny.

"Someone just run a background check on you" was one that sounded like the intro to a blues song.

Please share any that you found particularly strange or inventive.

I get a lot of spam but these always confuse me. It's apparently an advert for a Santoku knife, but then there's some bumf about Amy Adams?

I wonder how many of these are written by bots.  AI is going to give our junk mail an upgrade, I think.

Today's assortment:

"Awaiting Payment: I greet you! I have bad news for you..."

8ullfrog:
They actually avoid AI because it's unable to do the fishing for stupidity that the scam emails have to perform.

I think some of these would be great in Chinese fortune cookies.  I'd pay extra for a meal that included this creative bit of nonsense.
