Frightening Email from Another User

I received an email from someone claiming to be my deceased Uncle.  He stated, exact words:  

"I just noticed that there is detailed information about my immediate family on Geni.com. I want that info removed IMMEDIATELY!!"

I have only 7 people on the tree, and my Uncle is not there.  It is frightening to receive email from a dead person with "yelling" (all caps) in it.   I felt as if my privacy had been violated.   - - I know the typical answer is not to respond to an imposter and I have not answer this email. - - But I need more protection.  I want to report this person but I think it takes a premium account to get help?  Or maybe there is an explanation for what will turn out to be a mistake.  Can anyone help ?  Thank you!

 

PS - the only "detailed information" on my tree is about deceased persons, giving birth info and death into, etc. - things typical of a genetic website and not unusually personal at all.
