Hoi!

>From the header, it looks like this post originated in germany. Also, the
"organisation" field and the e-mail-adress hint that he is really from
germany. Of course, that could have been faked, but as far as i know it is
impossible or really hard to fake the "path" of the message, because each
server writes there where it did get the message from.

And yes, germany has of course copyright laws which prohibit things like
that (hey, this is not china). And sometimes the police seems to be very
informed about what they are doing...

I see two possibilities:

1. He is for real, and his offer is real, too. Stupid, very stupid.

2. The police is trying to get the buyers of these "warez" - as stupid as
above, but with stupid methods you get stupid people...

I think I'll inquire further into it.
