We have received three emails from the US Department of Justice Victim Notification System to our ARIN POC address advising us that we may be the victim of a crime. Headers look legit.

We have been frustrated in trying to follow the rabbit hole to get any useful information. we've jumped through hoops to get passwords that don't work and attempted to navigate a voice-mail system that resembles the "twisty maze of passages all different" from an old text adventure game.

This *seems* to be legit, and I would think that the end result is likely to be a list of IP addresses associated with infected hosts.

Has anyone else received the email? Is it legit? If so has anyone successfully navigated the maze, and if so how? Is it worth it?

(And why don't they just send the list of infected IPs to the ARIN contact in the first place?)
