claiming to have one of my passwords (a really old one i never used from the roll20 leak a long time ago) and demanding i pay bitcoin or theyll send a video that doesnt exist to my Facebook friends list (i dont have facebook)
United States, 2021-01-11 21:58:38
A generic extortion message. What surprised me is that they really got one of my passwords - the one I use for low security websites - They claim they hacked my webcam and will send it to all my contacts with the desktop capture, implying i was watching a perv video, quite unlikely because I don't use webcam normally so its unplugged.

Sextortion email... had a very old password of mine that i use as a throw away for random things. Claimed that they had footage of me watching porn... blah blah blah send $5k in bitcoin to the address above. Quite clearly a scam, Dont send money! just change your important account passwords! like online banking, and the passwords to your email accounts! to be on the safe side,

Tried to extort my mother out fo 4009$ worth of bitcoin by showing an old pw she doesn't use anymore saying they hacked her computer and recorded her watching porn (she's 64) and if she doesn't pay they will release the video.
United States, 2021-01-14 12:47:49
Subject line contained pw, request over $6000 in bitcoin. Promise to release video of watching porn.

I know ******** is one of your password on day of hack.. Lets get directly to the point. Not one person has paid me to check about you. You do not know me and you're probably thinking why you are getting this email? in fact, i actually placed a malware on the adult vids (adult porn) website and you know what, you visited this site to experience fun (you know what i mean). When you were viewing videos, your browser started out operating as a RDP having a key logger which provided me with accessibility to your display and web cam. immediately after that, my malware obtained every one of your contacts from your Messenger, FB, as well as email account. after that i created a double-screen video. 1st part shows the video you were viewing (you have a nice taste omg), and 2nd part displays the recording of your cam, and its you. Best solution would be to pay me $5864. We are going to refer to it as a donation. in this situation, i most certainly will without delay remove your video. Bitcoin address: 1FVJbpoKtJDyxaLGWCk2pkhezEgMHxp3mf [case SeNSiTiVe, copy & paste it] You could go on your life like this never happened and you will not ever hear back again from me. You'll make the payment via Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search 'how to buy bitcoin' in Google). if you are planning on going to the law, surely, this e-mail can not be traced back to me, because it's hacked too. I have taken care of my actions. i am not looking to ask you for a lot, i simply want to be paid. if i do not receive the bitcoin;, i definitely will send out your video recording to all of your contacts including friends and family, co-workers, and so on. Nevertheless, if i do get paid, i will destroy the recording immediately. If you need proof, reply with Yeah then i will send out your video recording to your 8 friends. it's a nonnegotiable offer and thus please don't waste mine time & yours by replying to this message.

Generic ransomware threat, but it surprised me that it got my low-security password I'm using on other websites. Threatening me about having my social media accounts in their possession. Asking for $2686 via bitcoin, knowing that I don't use cryptocurrency.
