I have received 2 of these emails from this guy now. I sent him a response asking him to obtain a warrant and to come knock on my door and talk to me in my face but I haven't seen the FBI show up at my home yet. I think he's most likely a fraud, the FBI or any law enforcement for that matter are more likely to phone you rather than email you anyways, but more likely if you commit a crime they usually just come over to your house and haul you away to court/jail. Of course jail/court comes after a little bit of waterboarding and flashlight therapy, I mean God forbid if a suspect made it to jail without broken ribs.

This guy is representing himself as an FBI agent.  Isn't that a Federal Offense?  He needs to be dealt with in the courts.  I hope he's caught SOON!

DO NOT send money to this scam artist,in my personal opinion,anyone that DOES get one of these should forward it to the real F.B.I. and have this person arrested for impersonating an agent so this doesn't happen to anyone EVER,EVER a***n!!!!!

Got an email. Agent's name is Benson Edward.

3/18/09 GOT THE SAME EMAIL AS JIM. LOOKS OFFICIAL. I HOPE THEY GET GET CAUGHT !!

got an email similar to the one posted....however, agent's name is Benson Edward.  his email listed as [email protected].  his phone number is +234-7080480970

I think he's a fraud, pretending to be a federal agent. He emailed me and left his number. When i called it sounded like a tv in the backround, but when I asked for his name he hesitated and asked for my name. I gave hime a fake name, and he responded his name is Robert mueller. Watch out for this guy...
