Dear sir,
I am SLAMMING you for your delay in returning my lawnmower. Please return today, or you won’t BELIEVE what happens next! 9 out of 10 billionaires don’t WANT you to know!

If I don’t read your e-mail then it’s likely that I got better things to do, I don’t need emotional blackmail on top of it
