OMG Thank you soo so so very much for posting this i was having a heart attack .got the same email

got the exact email today!!  the account number is the same and so is the amount i have saved all the emails i have gotten from them this is the first one with an account number and the amount that i "OWE" is always different ranging from $600.00 to $1000.00

I received this same e-mail you can really tell it's a scam when I see some of you had the same number that I received   0786 and a amount of $876.42 and I got this e-mail yesterday I wish there was a way to stop these people I just don't understand how they can get away with these threTening e-mails!

I don't answer unknown phone numbers (well, actually, I pick up the receiver and don't say a word while they say "hello? hello? hello?" for a while and then they hang up).  I did get the email and the idiots are so computer illiterate that they listed 37 email addresses on the TO: line . . . but mine wasn't included!   Fraud alert.  Garbage.  They don't use proper grammar or spelling; the voice on the phone is a mideastern accent, and this is the phone number listed in the email asking me to call.  Well, I will NOT call them, because that just verifies they have reached a legitimate phone number/email address.  Wish my email had an "undeliverable" or "return to sender" option.  Maybe I'll check out how we could do that.  

My question is this:  If the FTC is warning us about these scams, why can't they STOP them??

Just told my oldest son about this scam, and I love the suggestion he came up with:

Have the FTC announce that our government is now tracking these scam artists and taking appropriate action.  Let it go out on Twitter, email, HLN, TMZ, CNN, MSNBC, Fox, every talk show and news show here and abroad, complete with well-documented photoshopped pictures of the action, which is -- gathering up these scammers and transporting them to the currently erupting Mt. Etena and dropping them into the volcano, one at a time.  Film at eleven.  I love it.
