#1 I would say a encyclopedia article about the FBI with a picture of the seal would fall under "Fair Use".

Apparently the FBI has nothing better to do under Bambi.

#2 I received a FBI cover letter under Director Robert S. Mueller, III signature. It was a solicitation for money under some phishing scheme. I sent it on to the IC3 white-collar crime complaint site. I don't know whether anything was ever done about it. You've got to wonder if the FBI is used in internet white collar crime via phony emails if they can protect their seal.
