Type of a scam CryptoCurrency
I will attach the email they sent me, claiming they took over my computer after viewing an adult website.
They Claim they have a video of me masturbating and threaten to share it with all of my contacts they have received.
No site was visited on my behalf nor does a video exist of such even if they hacked into my desktops webcam. They are asking for $3000 in BTC in a 24 hour span.
I have ignored the email and submitted this.
My only concern was the fact that they know ******* as a password. That is an old password that isn’t in use but still rather concerning.
This is the entire email transcript;
