Thanks for the tip Tom. I was thinking the same about SCO myself. 
Doesn't SCO know they are inviting mail fraud charges by sending out 
these invoices? David Boies can't be that stupid, can he? The German 
court has already fined SCO 10,000 euros for the libelous statements 
made on the .de site:

Surely there must be a way for Linux users here to be able to complain 
to the courts or government agencies to stop this type of harassment. 
Should complaints should be brought to the postal service or FTC if 
local Linux companies recieve one of these SCO invoices?
