Wait, so he comes to HN looking for a hacker to steal money for him, which you (rightly) point out is wrong and are interested in forwarding his email address to the FBI - yet you yourself are posting on HN looking for a hacker to find an FBI email address for YOU because you're too lazy to fill out a form.
Sound funny at all to you? :)
- mooism2 16y agoNo, I posted to HN what I learned from e-mailing the OP. My motive was to sate the curiosity of anyone who wondered exactly what job the OP had in mind. I did fill in an FBI form the other week (technically not an FBI form --- some organisation funded by the FBI and others to investigate online crime). It was long and tedious. I don't fancy filling it in again, particularly as today I have a rotten cold. But ultimately I haven't lost $20k to offshore scam merchants, so I'm not particularly fussed whether the OP gets a talking to from law enforcement or not. Asking whether anyone knew of an appropriate FBI e-mail address was just an aside at the end. I don't know why you thought it was the main point of my comment.
- mooism2 16y agoWhat's funny is that I just suggested to him that he go and ask at 4chan.
