FBI tackles spam...on Twitter

By Jeremy P. Jacobs - 05/02/09 12:11 PM ET
Looks like the FBI is taking to Twitter to fight spam. Late Friday this random citizen expressed her concern about what she believed was spam.

thisfullhouse tweeted:
Roh-oh, looking at an email in my spam folder from Federal Bureau of Investigations saying, "Message from FBI." Dare I delete?

Not to fear, the FBI is on the case. "FBIPressOffice" tweeted shortly thereafter:
@thisfullhouse Yes, you dare.. and report it to our internet crime complaint center: www.ic3.gov
