Hewish again disqualified the South Korean team, who finished first, in the women's 3000m relay final at the 2010 Winter Olympics for blocking a Chinese skater. James subsequently received abusing and threatening emails including personal death threats from angry South Korean fans. A bomb threat was also made by a disgruntled fan against the Australian Embassy in Seoul, however it was later determined to be a hoax. James was provided police protection as a result of the threats.
