United States, 2019-11-04 15:27:19Impersonation phishing scam. Sender is forging header information to make it appear the email is coming from the victim's own mailbox. Header information shows the following: ARC-Authentication-Results: i=1; <redacted>; iprev=pass policy.iprev=185.24.233.108 (anonymous.noinfo.pw); spf=pass [email protected]; dkim=none; dmarc=fail
United States, 2019-11-04 18:01:25Claims to have compromising videos. Spoof because the email doesn't appear in my sent inbox and also doesn't have digital signature.

France, 2019-11-07 11:56:12Hello dear, My name is Jeanson Ancheta. Also known as J2Ancheta on the dark web. I am an experienced software developer and I am the best data hacker. Eleven months ago, I hacked this email address. You can check it. I am sending this email from your own email address now. (-my email address-) I injected my code to this device and I started to monitor your activity. My first idea was to block and encrypt your files. And than I would ask for a small fee to release them back. But than one day, You visited some dirty websites. You know what I mean naughty thing. And I silently activated your front camera and recorded You. Yes! You were playing with yourself. What a funny video. Now, I have the contact list of yourself. I have all your friends lists. A lot of information was downloaded to my system. I am asking from you a small fee of 750 USD. If you don't pay, all the naughty screen videos will be sent to your friends and family. ...
South Korea, 2019-11-08 14:55:24shit for brains scammer (SFBS) claims he hacked my email and now has access to my computer?????? SFBS wants me to pay him money. Well SFBS can get in line behind all the other SFBSs. Yes these people are scammers not hackers.
United States, 2019-11-08 16:56:09Received the same form email as the rest of the reporters. It actually did show up in my sent messages. Upgraded my antivirus just to be safe. There's a lot of websites claiming to sell antiviruses to "remove" this malware, but the sites only popped up a few days ago when these emails started. Not convinced they aren't another portion of this scam so I stuck to my current antivirus.
United States, 2019-11-10 05:39:44Spoof email containing the above bitcoin address, same email as the others here received, actual address appears to be [email protected]? However this domain fails to connect. Mail system reports "Host found but no data record of requested type"
