If you have received a blackmail email, it is important to take action. You should contact your local law enforcement agency and report the email. Depending on the threat and where you live, the local police or the FBI may be responsible for investigating extortion and blackmail cases. Describe the email in detail and provide copies of all emails related to the blackmail threat. Be sure to also send any details such as the sender‘s email address, the email header information, and other identifying information. Additionally, if you have been asked to pay or have already sent money, report that to the authorities. It is important to take precautionary measures in an effort to preserve any evidence and stop the person from continuing this type of criminal activity.
