Should I contact the local police or just let it go? Of course, I don't believe a word of it but when someone says they've planted a bomb I kinda feel like people may need to be notified- even if it's some generic account that they can't trace. I don't know- what say you folks?


Here's what it says...

quote:

Hello. My recruited person has carried a bomb (tronitrotoluene) into the building where your business is located. It is built under my direction. It can be hidden anywhere because of its small size, it is not able to destroy the supporting building structure, but there will be many wounded people in case of its explosion.
My man is controlling the situation around the building. If he sees any unusual behavior or emergency he will power the bomb.
I can call off my mercenary if you pay. You send me $20'000 in BTC and explosive will not detonate, but do not try to deceive me -I guarantee you that I have to call off my recruited person only after 3 confirmations in blockchain.

My payment details (Bitcoin address)- 15F7TCqGRWE66xrBNxyt9ko1XsKaQvEh9t

You have to pay me by the end of the workday, if you are late with the payment the device will explode.
This is just a business, if I do not receive the money and the explosive device detonates, next time other companies will send me more money, because it is not an isolated incident.
To stay anonimous I wont log into this email. I monitor my Bitcoin address every thirty minutes and if I see the payment I will give the command to my mercenary to leave your area.

If the bomb detonates and the authorities see this email- We arent terrorists and do not take any liability for acts of terrorism in other places.

my local PD just sent out an alert about these. They wanted to be updated on them, FWIW. But it wont amount to anything

Thanks both of you- I guess I'll ignore it.

I mean, report it to the Cops if you really want to I guess but all that does is give them another number to report to the FBI or whoever will be investigating this to add to the total.

Nice liability waiver, Mr. Anonymous Bomber.

Its the newest, and vilest, email spam campaign.

Report it to the cops if you have the time. As for it being real... if you have so much cash that a terrorist group would try to get money from you...

I love you and offer you my hand in marriage.

Pass it to the local authorities to warn the community.

There are so many scams and it takes 5 seconds for them to post on their Facebook about scams impacting their community.

There were 3 bomb threats in Cola today. Wondering if they were connected to this.

I'm in DC and was at Union Station today and noticed a shite ton of police with dogs there today. Way, way more than usual. Maybe that had something to do with this as well.

I know, with that added bit at the end. It is going to be impossible for anyone to prosecute them if they are found.

Okay, it is not just about email threats and scams. There was a kid today in indiana that brought a weapon to school, shot at cops and then killed himself. I just finished watching our government officials blow off information about the clinton foundation. We have people who think they are oppressed when they have no clue of what that means.

Do I need to go on?
