Report Attachments
This is not the first email I have received of this type. Usually these end up in my JUNK folder. For some reason, this one found its way to my inbox.
The tone of the message just isnt right. The grammer isn't up to government employee standard. Though I have seen much worse.
The email Includes a downloadable document. It is supposed to be an "Arrest Warrant" from who? I couldn't quite figure that out.
At bottom of email it is signed Frank Hamilton "Federal Investigation Department"
Yet the attached document is from the "UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT", From Frank Hamilton, "State Attorneys Office".
At the very bottom where the judge's name is to be printed and signed, there again is the name Frank Hamilton, but the signature looks like "Christopher" something.

Its a scam...just like the phone calls people get from fake debit collectors, or the bottom feeder collectors. Its a common place with them. Their phone calls are the same stuff. They will act like a law officer, or such and threaten to have a officer come to your house, or work and arrest you that day if you dont pay some crazy amount by western union, money pack and the like. Do not pay them, or even worry about it. Go to 1800 notes. com and read up on the hundred of thousands of people getting these calls and emails. And around this time of year its common they step up their harrnessment.

This is obviously a scam to extort money from you. In this case the scammers have crossed the line by creating a document that makes it appear that the United States government is involved. This may be the fuel needed to finally get law enforcement out of the donut shop and onto the trail of the ragheaded terrorists behind the scam.
Print out the text of the email, the text of the headers, and this fake "warrant" and take it to your local FBI office. You might also want to send copies of the above documents to the presiding judge at your local federal district court. Since there is also reference to an Illinois state district attorney, this same information should be sent to both the Illinois Attorney General and the real district attorney in Joliet.
I do not know about federal or Illinois law, but in my state it is a crime to simulate court documents.
BTW, you are dead right about the grammar. Whoever wrote the text of the email you received does not speak English.
