Today i received an email.
Its below..
"I do know, +×÷=%% is your password. You don't know me and you're most likely thinking why you are getting this e mail, right?
In fact, I actually installed a malware on the adult video clips (porno) web-site and do you know what, you visited this web site to have fun (you know what I mean). While you were watching video clips, your browser started working as a RDP (Remote Desktop) with a key logger which provided me with accessibility to your display screen and web cam. Right after that, my software gathered your entire contacts from your Messenger, social networks, as well as email.
What exactly did I do?
I made a double-screen video. First part displays the video you were watching (you have a nice taste lmao), and 2nd part shows the recording of your webcam.
What should you do?
Well, I believe, $2900 is a fair price tag for our little secret. You'll make the payment via Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search "how to buy bitcoin" in Google).
BTC Address: 1Ezxkg7b3ZX9P2Bp1pDschhohhdfH9giia
(It is cAsE sensitive, so copy and paste it)
Note:
You have one day to make the payment. (I've a special pixel within this e mail, and now I know that you have read through this email). If I do not get the BitCoins, I will send your video to all of your contacts including relatives, coworkers, etc. Nevertheless, if I receive the payment, I will erase the video immidiately. If you need evidence, reply with "Yes!" and I definitely will send your video to your 12 friends. It is a non-negotiable offer, so do not waste my time and yours by replying to this e-mail."
Now i know the guy is lying as i dont visit porn sites and its impossible for his threats to be carried out.
That said....the concerning thing is he does know one of my passwords.
I know i need to change my password but i dont have a clue how he has got it....its one i have used on a few sites not my bank accounts etc.
