You report it immediately to the local police. They have people working on that sort of thing as we speak. They may be able to identify those people and 'save' that child. Do it!! In Canada the law requires you to report any kind of child abuse. Do your best to save that child, and lock up the abuser.

I agree with hershe...or it could be the police working undercover and to see how many perverts they are willing to view stuff like that either call the police and fax them the email or just use the block but if they get another name then they just send more... so your best bet be the police..report it. it might save a child...

I agree I think that I would contact my local police and see what they say about it. They may want to try and get in contact with the person to catch thembefore they harm an innocent child!!

You should report it to the police so they can try to trace it and find out who's doing this, maybe a child is even in trouble.

My guess is it's probably just spam mail, but try forwarding the message to abuse@whatever domain the message is coming from. For example, if the e-mail says it was coming from nate@comcast.net, forward it to abuse@comcast.net.

When email abuse happened to me I immediately reported it to myLot. I am assuming they reported. I haven't seen it since. I have dealt with myLot before about things, and they are 'on the ball'.

You can report it to the police or block the ID address permanently from getting mails. It is better to contact police for permanent solution.

Report it to the police and also if you have cyber laws in your country, you can approach the relevant court

Someones like their making the child pose in the net, report it to the local authority or police. Save the email you got for evidence in case you report it. Dont reply to it either. Or if you are planning to report, make another email the guy who emails you and act like you are asking about the child. And they record what he sends to you, so you have evidence if you report him.

Peachy is right on it, do not open to investigate but forward it to the proper gov. site. or at the very least ban the sender from sending you mail. In all probability it is a joke, but a childs life is not worth taking that chance is it? Right on Peachy!!!
