About the only thing that gets the attention of people like this is to
crack their box, install a key logger and appropriate spyware and print
out a message on their screen:

Your bank account number is -----------
Your bank account login is -----------
Your bank account password is -----------
your email to your lover/mistress ---------------- sent on mm/dd/yy said:
"-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------"

NOW DO YOU BELIEVE ME?

Then arrange for this spyware to be sent to everyone on the network with
the correct "From" line.
