Help you all! These emails are getting more threatening.
by John DeLaney Wed Nov 16, 2011 2:57 am
Hi KrazyKat

In all honesty, just delete and ignore them, and block the senders email address.

They are just the usual scam emails sent out in the thousands to everyone, and they are as fake as the reply to address.

There is no way the scammer sending them is connected to the FBI, and no way they can do anything to harm you.

Do not reply, delete and ignore.

Welcome.

The advice already given is spot on. There is no way they can harm you, and they have no police connections. Besides this, if the FBI want to arrest anyone they don't email them and offer them the chance to buy their way out of trouble. This is similar to the "hitman" scam where someone threatens to shoot you if you don't pay them, it's simple extortion and frightening to see in your mailbox, but completely toothless if you just ignore and block their address.

Are they who they say they are? Google their email address or mobile phone number and see where else they've been. Use Google Images to see if they have stolen somebody elses' photographs.
