Serious question about reporting email to police

    I got one today about seeing 8-10 year olds doing porn.
    I have to report this somewhere, but not sure what to do.
    I've sent this to my provider, but I want legal action involved. I don't want them to just label it spam. I want this person investigated.

    Any suggestions?

    Call the local police and ask them.

    Call this guy.


    But seriously, you should e-mail that to the local branch of the state police or someone of that sort.

    What happens if they mistakenly think that Mark was the originator. He would be arrested.

    If I got it at work, I would ask the paper's attorney how to proceed.

    I agree that forwarding it might be unwise without some advice first.

    I did send it to cybertipline.com

    They'd know I'm not the originator - I sent it to AT&T's spam division, so they have a record of it.

    And that, Boom, is why I said to forward it to the police. He already notified his ISP.

    It's a criminal issue, so call the police...
