Should I report this disgusting scam to the *real* FBI??
Here's a cut&paste of the despicable email that landed in my inbox today (emphasis & color are the same...):

ANTI TERRORIST & MONITORY CRIME DIVISION
FBI HEADQUARTERS IN WASHINGTON , D.C.
FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION
J. EDGAR HOOVER BUILDING

935 PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE, NW WASHINGTON , D.C. 20535-0001



Attn: Beneficiary,

This is an official advice from the FBI foreign Remittance / telegraphic dept., it has come to our notice that the Bank in Nigeria district has released 10,500,000.00 US dollars into Citibank New York in your name as the beneficiary, by inheritance means. The Bank In Nigeria knowing fully well that they do not have Enough facilities to effect this payment from the Citibank London united kingdom to your account, used what we know as a Secret Diplomatic Transit Payment (S.T.D.P) to pay this fund through wire transfer, they used this means to complete the payment. They are! still, waiting for confirmation f

Records which we have had with this method of payment in the past Has always been related to terrorist acts, we do not want you to get into trouble as soon as these funds reflect in your account, so it is our duty as a world wide commission to correct this little problem before this fund will be credited into your personal account.

Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, the F.B.I bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver payment of $10,500,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (S.D.T.A). We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world.

We advice you contact us immediately, as the funds have been Stopped and are being held in our custody, until you can be able to provide us with a diplomatic immunity seal of transfer (D.I.S.T) within 3 days from the world local bank that authorize the transfer from where the funds was transferred from to certify that the funds that you are about to receive from Nigeria are antiterrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to cross and impound the Payment, we shall release the funds immediately we receive this legal documents.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We have decided to contact you directly to acquire the proper Verifications and proof from you to show that you are the rightful person to receive this fund, because of the amount involve, we want to make sure is a clean and legal money you are about to receive. Be informed that the fund are now in United State in your name, but right now we have ask the bank not to release the fund to anybody that comes to them, unless we ask them to do so, because we have to carry out our investigations first before releasing the fund to you. Note that the fund is with Citibank New York right now, but we have ask them not to credit the fund to you yet, because we need a solid proof and Verifications from you before releasing the funds.

So to this regards you are to re-assure and proof to us that what you are about to receive is a clean money by sending to us FBI Identification Record and also Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer (DIST) to satisfy to us that the money your about to receive is legitimate and real money.

These Documents are to be issued to you from the IndependentCorrupt Practices Commission(I.C.P.C) In Nigeria , so get back to us immediately if you dont have the document so that we will inform you the particular place to obtain the document in Nigeria , because we have come to realize that the fund was Authorized by (International Monetary Fund (IMF).

An FBI Identification Record and Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer (DIST.) often referred to as a Criminal History Record or Rap Sheet, is a listing of certain information taken from fingerprint submissions retained by the FBI in connection with arrests and, in some instances, federal employment, naturalization, or military service.

These Conditions Is Valid fir three days after we shall take actions on Canceling the payment and then charge you for illegally moving funds out of Nigeria.

1. Robert Mueller has a Yahoo email account in Hong Kong? Who knew?

Personally, I'd just forward it to my email service's TOS violation/spam account and let them handle it.
