Chase Bank has been targeted with threatening letters sent to more than 30 bank offices in 9 U.S. states.

Many of the letters contained an "unidentified powder" but, to date, all "field tests" on the substance have tested negative for "harmful substances".

At least 30 Chase bank offices in nine U.S. states have been targeted by threatening letters, many of them containing an unidentified powder, an FBI spokesman said on Tuesday.

At least five Chase branches in Colorado and Oklahoma received the letters on Monday and some contained a white powder, Chase had said.

But what were the threats? just the powder?

That's pretty scary.  It sounds like someone has a personal grudge against Chase Rewards.  I would like to know what if the labs have figured out what the powder is.
