It seems to me that one of the trailers below would be more likely to
justify a death theat. Or at least a blinding.
LOL
UH


Death threat? I was thinking they might have caused suicides by previous
owners.

I can see some significant gnashing of teeth since I got such a good
deal on the Avionic trailer..............and the tube trailer is just
spiffy! Maybe someone thinks I should just give it away........

Similar thing happened to me about five years ago, and I called the
local FBI office.

Turns out to be a fairly common scam. The FBI told me to ignore it.

Hmmm. I'm no lawyer but isn't conveying a death threat by interstate
means a federal crime which falls squarely in the FBI's turf? They're
probably too busy but if someone could trace the e-mail.... Maybe
I've been watching too many TV crime shows.

You may recall when an officer of a Colorado club had his name used to
convey a threat to a power flying club in another city. We were able
to ID the IP to the sheriff in the relevant county and said person was
dealt with after a bit of sleuthing.

They probably do not give much attention to known scams. Frankly,
Rachel at Cardholders Services, is a much bigger problem.

How much does he want to not kill you? I have a guy who won't do it
for next to nothing. He reliable and discrete, too.

This guy was too stupid to set up an elaborate scam so he just says
he'll kill you.
Quite a new approach!
I would bet you he is in some 3rd world country and that is why the
FBI is not interested.
