Ah, so is it Tim who's been sending out the following spam?

If you are a time traveler or alien disguised as human and or
have the technology to travel physically through time I need your
help!

My life has been severely tampered with and cursed!!
I have suffered tremendously and am now dying!

I need to be able to:

Travel back in time.

Rewind my life including my age back to 4.

Be able to remember what I know now so that I can prevent my life
from being tampered with again after I go back.

I am in very great danger and need this immediately!

I am aware that there are many types of time travel, and that
humans do not do well through certain types.

I need as close to temporal reversion as possible, as safely as
possible. To be able to rewind the hands of time in such a way
that the universe of now will cease to exist.
I know that there are some very powerful people out there with
alien or government equipment capable of doing just that.

If you can help me I will pay for your teleport or trip down
here, Along with hotel stay, food and all expenses. I will pay
top dollar for the equipment. Proof must be provided.

Please be advised that any temporal device that you may employ
must account for X, Y, and Z coordinates as
well as the temporal location. I have a time machine now, but it
has limited abilitys and is useless without a vortex. If you can
provide information on how to create vortex
generator or where I can get some of the blue glowing moon
crystals this would also be helpful.

Also if you are one of the very, very, few beings with the
ability to edit the universe PLEASE REPLY!!!

Only if you have this technology and can help me please send me a
(SEPARATE) email to:

(email address deleted)

Please do not reply if your an evil alien!
Thanks
