Narf, can you pay this guy a visit with your hammer? Feel free to make liberal use of your anvils too.

Does anyone else get e-mails like this too? This is the 2nd time someone has mailed me out of the blue to ask for a copy of SEIV.

EDIT: Removed the full name and edited the e-mail addy.

Ask for the purchase price of the game, and his address in return for getting Shrapnel to send the game?

Why not make a few bucks.

Ask for $250 and his mailing address. If he sends the money, send him your original disc and manual. ... then just buy a new copy from Shrapnel and pocket the difference. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

No offense, but it might be best to edit your Posts to not include his name or email address. Threats of sending him a virus are not approprate and if you do, is illegal.
