    I had one like that months ago, I'm not even American:D

    had another one claiming to be fraud squad, making it sound like I'd definitly been discovered to have accepted stolen money from one of the previous scam emails and risked going to jail - but could send them all my details so they could sort it out.

    I've had the FBI spam too. It's amusing, since I live in Australia. Even more funny, it's not only disclaimed on the FBI's own site, but has made the Australian Government's list of scams as well.

    I had one email account which I use it for signup to all the free internet offers. After a while you will find that it will be full with these type of email and eventually have to abandon the account.
