It is really sad that bitcoin's name got involved in such incident. This kind of incidents force the policy makers to believe that bitcoin is somewhat linked to the illegal matters. Not food for bitcoin and definitely not good for the community. I strongly condemn such kind of illegal and terror acts!

Several area businesses are receiving what appears to be a robo-email saying there is a bomb threat to their business unless they pay money in Bitcoins.  We have found no credible evidence any of these emails are authentic.
