I've never kept exact count of the emails purporting to be from the FBI over the years, but they'd be in the hundreds. Among them have been many that include the phrase "you have failed to dance by the rule of the FBI" and/or demanded payments to be made to someone in Benin.
This bait didn't last beyond the first exchange of emails, but it includes two phone calls to a very stupid Lad.
My comments are in bold.

ATTENTION

We have been told that you have failed to dance by the rule of the FBI which will warrant 2 years jail sentence.

I decided to call the Lad, but in this case I was Roscoe White, Cammy's brother and a Captain in the Australian Special Air Service Regiment, serving at the time in Afghanistan.

So I sent an email...
Attn: Anderson Okoye
I will reiterate the points I made over the telephone.
[1] I am calling via a secured network that obscures my number. It is a default setting and cannot be changed.
[2] I am currently located in Tarin Kowt, Afghanistan, and therefore unable to comply with any demands.
[3] If you are monitoring my movements, you are endangering operational security.

After that, I called back to lay down some facts to the Lad. At lot of the time I could hear voices in the background prompting him.

There was nothing more to say.
