email threat
How would you interpret this email? '' Don't do anything stupid my friend, all hell could break loose''.
Would you view this as a threat, or simply someone's advice and opinion? There is no mention of physical harm or bodliy injury.

Re: email threat
Alot depends on the context and Identity of the sender: does this person have physical proximity to you or access to property or accounts of yours (like a spouse)? If not, unlikely to be held to be cyber-terrorism.
