Scammers impersonating the F.B.I.

This scam email has been forwarded to us here at scamwarners. When scammers begin to put themselves forward as the F.B.I. it may mean that the person receiving the email is already being scammed in some other way. Of course this email is not from the real F.B.I. The very poor grammar in this long scam script tells us that the author likely believes himself to have superior skills in English. He doesn't The real F.B.I. would not be contacting any person in this manner and they would also never use a free email service such as msn. Simply delete or ignore.
