FBI launches e-mail alerts service The FBI recently launched a service that sends out e-mail alerts when new and vital information is posted on its website.
“Through these alerts, the FBI’s breaking news and information comes straight to you—to your PC, laptop, or wireless device,” said John Miller, Assistant Director for Public Affairs. “It’s a fast, effective way of keeping our partners and the public informed about terrorist threats, missing kids, wanted fugitives, emerging scams, major cases, and more. And most importantly, it will help us do a better job of catching criminals and keeping the American people safe.” Signing up is easy. Just click on the red envelope icons found on the FBI’s main website at http://www.fbi.gov and on the websites of its 56 field offices nationwide. No personal information is required, just an e-mail address where the alerts will be sent. Subscribers select which topics that they want updates on and the alerts are sent as soon as updates are posted on the FBI website or in daily, weekly, or monthly digests.
