In case you missed it, Steve Linford of Spamhaus, posted to the NANAE 
newsgroup indicating he had been contacted by the FBI who also want to 
follow up with any Rita Scams ASAP.  Instructions are please forward any 
scams that arrive in mail to your local Spamhaus volenteer.  (IF you 
don't know any you can forward them to me, and I'll make sure they get 
there).

Regards,

Mat
