Extortion scam threatens victims with compromising video of them watching porn
Ignore the emails.
They don’t have video.
But they have your password.
Finally, a use for that blowhard Liam Neeson!
“I don’t know who you are. I don’t know what you want. If you are looking for ransom I can tell you I don’t have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my daughter go now that’ll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you, but if you don’t, I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you.”
I got the lazy version of that yesterday... They didn’t have any old hacked Facebook or other Social Media passwords of mine, or my real name like some of the messages have. They wanted $1000 in bitcoin from me
Plus I don’t have any webcam, and the cameras on my smart phone are taped over, so that part would be an impossibility.
Reporting it to the FBI would be a waste of time. I checked mine out carefully and the sending email account was a hacked computer in Brazil, but the originating IP was in Algeria... so likely the money would be going into some terrorist bitcoin account.
The scheme isn’t new... has been running around for about 6 months.
Do the pics of Obummer’s mom’s bare azz and teats quality?
The scammers had my Freerepublic password. Has it been compromised?
I’ve been receiving emails saying I have committed 4 felonies and if I don’t pay the fine immediately, they will send the police to arrest me. Yeah, I read the first email a couple of times, and recognized what it was.
