Scare/Scam Tactic??!

Ok, thus is confusing!

I received an response to one of my free online ads today that just said "sent to attorney general".

The ad stated: "We Buy Houses, Any Condition, Any Situation" "Call for your personal evaluation"
"Never any commissions or fees" followed by my name and my partner's name and phone numbers.

The responded via the contact email link within the ad site. Their email came from a hotmail account, with an addy indicating some sort of legal regulatory implication "lawsreg7".

Does anyone have an idea what they want or the tactic behind this? I am in AZ.

We run a variety of ads, is there anything you would change about this particular one? (whether for effectiveness reasons or whatever?)

Thanks much!
