This is a sort of anti-answer. When the Unabomber Manifesto was published by the NYT, someone in sci.math (or sci.math.research) recognised the reasoning as being like that of a mathematician. I don't know if anyone mentioned that to the FBI. It eventually turned out that the unabomber was indeed a mathematician. Btw, I was just in the next room when one of his bombs exploded.
