Comment on Phishing email: The friend needing help by Anonymous

July 29, 2011

I just received the same email today, including a follow-up email asking for money to be sent to Western Union, care of the same address above.

I then sent an email to [email protected] to report the fraud. No reply yet. I also called Western Union’s fraud hotline and asked if they could freeze any funds sent to that account and contact the police. They said that they co-operate with police investigations but do not initiate any calls to police, which I found very disappointing.

Does anyone know which police to contact, and how? It would be great to catch these culprits showing up at a Western Union office trying to cash in their stolen money.
