Porn viewing blackmail
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: 1DfsSbGUkPfCohNccx1F8Cxnd7skUv7Ed7 Important: You have 48 hour in order to make the payment.
Claimed to have hacked my email, by spoofing the email header as if it was sent from my own email address. But upon looking at the internet email header detail, it was actually sent from [email protected] (ip address 75.101.62.226). The content of the email tried to blackmail me to make payment into the sender's bitcoin address.
About the 10th time I've received this "I watched you 'enjoy yourself' to some porn" email demanding $1,000 USD in BC. They've all come from different sources (spoofing my email address) and all using different BC wallets.
