An email containing an image full of spelling mistakes and weird spacing that claims to have hacked my webcam whilst I was enjoying adult content and threatening to send a video of it to all my contacts of I don't pay $1000 to the bitcoin address contacted me from what looked to be my own email address. When looking at the full header it seems email was sent from [email protected]
Had sent an email with my own name to myself, claiming had hacked my email account and got hold of all my passwords for my various accounts. Demand US$1,000.00 to keep the information in secret.
Word by word what others describe. Received an email from my own domain with message saying that I was caught on webcam watching porn and requesting $1,000 in bitcoin.
Same old scam no more real than a fart in the breeze.
