No way! I would not kill anybody. It is not fair to sacrifice anybody but yourself. they are not yours to sacrifice.

No way like I would trust some random stranger that much. I would probably think the guy saying it to me was a nut job. I mean I don't trust anyone who can "see the future" and is not living rich. I know if I could see the future I would be rich. Also if he wants the world saved so bad why would he not kill that person himself if he was telling the truth?
OK now for arguments sake lets say this was someone who could not interact with our physically but somehow I could see him and talk to him. Also I am not crazy and I somehow know he is telling the truth. Then I would have to know what saving the world means. I mean are you talking the full extenuation of human kind or just a big war. Also how many generations away. I mean we are not capable right now of bringing about the end of the world. I also really doubt we will be able to do it in the next generation or two. I mean if we put a lot of records into making things to bring about he end of the world maybe but I don't see that happening. If it was just a big war no I would let it happen. If it was extenuation in the nest 10 generations I would kill the guy. Otherwise to bad for the world I don't want to go to jail.
Like I would not kill Hitler if I was back in the day. Because world war 2 was pretty much inevitable after WW1 also Germany would have had the same knowledge base. they did before Hitler. Now what happens when I different leader starts the war a year or two later. We get less of their scientists and they get the bomb first? Well, lets just say I would be glad I am tall have blond hair and light eyes. I mean the death camps were not even his idea. That idea man probably would have been in the same place under who ever lead them to war.

Is this like Satan tempting you? Where he has the power to do something huge but will only do it if you do the deed? I would refuse.
Or is this like waking up in Germany in 1920 and meeting Adolf Hitler, and knowing you could just kill him and no one would ever know what would have come to pass? Oh, wait, we know who Hitler was.
So another way is to say "Trust me; this is the next Hitler. Kill him and feel great". In that case I would not trust the person because if he believed it, why wouldn't he act on it? I would think it was a trick.
The movie "The Dead Zone" by Stephen King dealt with this. Quite the moral dilemma.
Then there's joining the armed forces and shooting Taliban or Al Qaeda. Yeah, I'd do that.

hell no. thats got be the oldest lie in the business of ruling over others. its a psychological "trojan horse" you accept the premise to gratify your ego, in so doing you delude yourself with a sense of granduer and project equal parts villianous attributes to your target well assisted by your"handler" i am sure. then when the puppet you "erase" is no longer with us neither are their secrets. the secret they go to their graves with is the identity of their masters who i am certain would be indirectly "connected" to your handler. ultimately just a pawn in a well orchestrated "clean-up" and the grazing herd of americas stumbles forward none the wiser.

No... why would I WANT to save the world and condemn myself?
