Claims to have compromised device and threatening to release "embarrassing" pictures to contacts. Source email is same as compromised account except for single letter change.

I don’t know the name. They messaged me from my email, he claims to have video and photo of me “pleasuring my self” that he says he’ll send people. In my case as a teenager, he would have child porn if his claims are true. He asked for ransom

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. asking for ~$600, threatened to publish "hacked" content to contacts. Sendsed from spoofed email, very similar to the receiver
