Blackmail scam
Abuser: no noame
I have bad news for you. In the software of the router to which you were connected that day, there was a vulnerability. I first hacked this router and placed my malicious code on it. When you entered in the Internet, my trojan was installed on the operating system of your device. After that, I made a full dump of your disk (I have all your address book, history of viewing sites, all files, phone numbers and addresses of all your contacts). A month ago, I wanted to lock your device and ask for a small amount of money to unlock. But I looked at the sites that you regularly visit, and came to the big delight of your favorite resources. I am strongly belive that you would not like to show these pictures to your relatives, friends or colleagues. I think $980 is a very small amount for my silence. Besides, I spent a lot of time on you! I accept money only in Bitcoins. My BTC wallet: 15ZHnf1MPn6ybb8yUeAoCQ1AJtiKhg3NrP

Well, in my opinion, $1000 (USD) is a fair price for our little secret. You'll make the payment by Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search "how to buy bitcoin" in Google). My Bitcoin wallet Address: 1564ZdqevNjVgR9ey4cgEa3kDkisRFED5P (It is cAsE sensitive, so copy and paste it) Important: You have 48 hour in order to make the payment. (I've a unique pixel in this e mail, and at this moment I know that you have read through this email message). To track the reading of a message and the actions in it, I use the facebook pixel. Thanks to them. (Everything that is used for the authorities can help us.) If I do not get the BitCoins, I will certainly send out your video recording to all of your contacts including relatives, coworkers, and so on.

Abuser: Phishing
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. Do not try to contact me or find me, it is impossible, since I sent you an email from YOUR hacked account. <<... mail omitted...>> The strange thing is that the mail appears to be sent from the receivers mailaddres. When checking the headers you can see that it has been sent from other mailservers.

He hacked into my account claimingthat I have been watching ”pornos” even though I am a 13 year old kid. Now he wants me to pay $1000 otherwise he will apparently upload the video of me watching and my face am to all my contacts

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). The story as described in the mail is therefore incorrect and is not based on truths. Well, in my opinion, $1000 (USD) is a fair price for our little secret. You'll make the payment by Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search "how to buy bitcoin" in Google).
