sounds like a fraud/extortion attempt. The address doesn’t compute as legit.

Make a paper copy and then delete it. Notify your local FBI branch and tell them what is going on. They will let you know whether it is a legit email or not.

What is odd (to say the least) is that they always seem to call the same day you make a credit card purchase. Happened yesterday after a transaction with Amazon. The number was 508 475 1331, and it many have complaints. http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-508-475-1331

You can filed an FCC form 1088 on them:

I also have been getting more calls AFTER i got on the “Do Not Call” list.

I am very familiar with these cases. In fact I specialize in them. First, you are really in big trouble. Second, you must send me a retainer fee in the amount of 5.7 million. Third and most important, you cannot tell anyone about our arrangement.

Before you send him the 10k cashiers check, make him show up live on the webcam, naked wearing nothing but ladies panties on his head, so you can be sure it’s really him.

I would scan your computer for a virus.

It was probably a virus in the message. No way the FBI would contact you via email.

I say bring Freeper Lowbridge into the action here. He's legendary for prior dealings with Nigerian scam artists.

Impersonating a federal law enforcement official is, I think, a federal offense.

When I worked at a doctor's office, I once got a call from a guy claiming to be an FBI agent named something common like James Smith (he had an accent you could cut with a knife). He said he had speak with the Dr. I told him he was with a patient, but I could take a message. He demanded that I get the Dr. right now! I then asked him if he knew the penalty for impersonating an FBI agent... he hung up.

Common phishing scheme. You can report to the real FBI via the link below. They do activley investigate these. Overseas
scammers, mainly but not entirely Nigerian do these because they know it pisses off FBI.
