FYI is an acronym for "For your information." So, instead of writing "For your information" you would simply write "FYI" to get your point across. (Hence, an acronym)
An e-mail may be forwarded and in the content you can write "FYI" and the reader should then scroll down to read the remainder of the e-mail.
Can be mistaken for "For your FYI" - this is misuse of acronym.

It's quite simple actually. It was originally a shortened version for For Your Information.
However, people have made up other things that can stand for FYI. For example "Fuck You Idiot". But, that's a bit pointless if you ask me. Saying the whole thing has a grander effect.

FYI; Fuck You Idiot. When you're really mad at someone and you think they are so bad at whatever, you say FYI, also meaning For Your Information.
