Warning: Eric Holder Doesn’t Really Want You to Pay $370

The FBI has issued a warning about a new e-mail scam that uses the name of Attorney General Eric Holder in an effort to collect $370.

The e-mail tells the recipients that they are being investigated for terrorism and money laundering crimes, but they can pay $370 to buy a special certificate and avoid prosecution, according to an FBI statement. “Do not respond,” the press release advises. “These e-mails are a hoax.”

Hat tip to Main Justice and SPAMfighter.
