This is obviously the biggest nonsense, paying with Bitcoin is anonymous so the scammer cannot know who the money came from (there is no sender).

Blackmail email claiming to have hijacked email and devices to copy contacts and record webcam video of visits to adult sites. Demanding $1000 via bitcoin or the video will be released to contacts.

You may not know me and you are probably wondering why you are getting this e mail, right? I’m a hacker who cracked your email and devices a few months ago.

After that, my software program obtained all information.
