Re: Threat mail from russia (followup)

["Justin Kremer - CEO" <ceo () investigateintl com>]

If you receive an e-mail like this, the FIRST thing to do is contact the
bank given in the e-mail.  Let them know that their client is involved in
mail fraud.  Secondly, I would use the mail header and contact the sender's
ISP.
Should take a whole 10 minutes out of your busy day and hopefully will teach
this guy a lesson.
