YT 500 Club Member | Update Thank you everyone so much for your replies i really appreciate it. hha i am in Pensacola and I just got done talking to an officer a few minutes ago, he had to come out and see and he is getting a internet crime investigator to look into it. He told me he has not seen this kind of email in a long time. He also told me how his son had downloaded Limewire and how someone had hacked their computer and put a lot of virus on it and was trying to get into his bank account he told me they tracked the IP to West Palm Beach. That is really sad, he told me never download anything lol, i would never download limewire I might be 19 but I am far from dumd, limewire is a well known hacker ridden music downloader so many people have access to your computer. Well thank you everyone for being here for me i will be reporting more to whatelse happen, I know one thing no one is getting 7,000 out of me!

| I hope they catch them too. It sucks that it is so hard to catch ppl doing stuff like this, especially if they are going through a proxy server.

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | holy crap! that scared me just reading it on here. I think I would have cried if I had gotten it. That's terrifying, and sick, sick, sick. Good for you contacting the police, hopefully they can catch this sick monster.

YT 500 Club Member | Officer Chris got intouch with me today after i found her email on the website here is what she stated: Joy, I am sorry if I dropped the ball on the email. Your problem email is a well known scam which originates from Russia. The FBI is investigating it and I will forward your email to Special Agent Cochran here in Pensacola so that he may add your complaint to the list. This particular email appears to be routed from Amsterdam through yahoo into gmail. Many times these scam artiest hijack peoples accounts who buy porn or other items from overseas merchants the unsuspecting victim is tricked into giving his password by making him or her believe that they are logging into a legitimate email site and the suspects use these emails to forward these threats in order to obtain funds from frightened people while at the same time, masking their identity. The good news is that I can assure you that there is no hit-man on your trail and I recommend that you do not correspond with this guy. Simply block him with your spam filter. Also, Let me give you a site where you can report any illegal activity you see on the net. Especially crimes involving children. You can google "cybertipline" and it will take you to http://www.missingkids.com/cybertip/ the National Center for Missing or Exploited Children. They are the clearing house for activity involving children and the internet but I am told they will accept other types of crimes and forward them to the proper law enforcement agency. Again I am very sorry if I did not send you my email. Let me give you my office and cell number should you have any more concerns. Chris Wilkinson

YT 500 Club Member | Yeah I am really happy she did because I was worryinig about where did it come from why me etc, they also sent me a second email just the same and I sent them both to chris, the second one came last night. I just have to be safer online and not do anymore surveys because i think that a lot of survey companies sell your email address or something.
