To see the raw e-mail message on mozilla , go to the "View" menu , 
"Message body as" and choose "plain text". This will give you all the 
headers , unformatted html code , etc.
If there are links in the message , see if they point to ip addresses..  
Send the message source to your bank  ,so can they can give this 
information to the police so they can track down these criminals.
