Blackmail scam
Abuser: Masked my email address - Subject: "With reference to your cloud storage"
Hello. I am sorry to inform you that your mobile backup storage was compromised. I'll explain what led to all of this. One website where you have an account was hacked. I've got access to your password from that breach and with some advanced hacking techniques and bruteforce, I have extracted your backup data from the cloud storage used for backups. Nothing could have prevented this, not even 2FA. The data that I have downloaded contains your personal photos and videos, chats, documents, emails, contacts, your browsing history, notes, social media history and more including some deleted files. Basically it's a full copy of your mobile device. I am sure that you dont want any part of the data to be seen by other people. And you can prevent this. If I dont get what I'm asking for, I will use this information against you. I find some of the media content quite entertaining(you know what I'm talking about), your friends and colleagues will not think the same. If you are not sure of what I can do, just imagine what would happen if I use your email or phone number to send the most private and damaging content to your contacts. And can spice up things with you browsing history as well. It will be very damaging to you personally. However, I offer you a solution. You will avoid this mess by paying me a consulting fee to delete the files I have. I guarantee, that after I receive the payment, the files will be deleted on my side and I will not bother you again about this. You will need to change your password as well. So let's make it simple. You pay me $1500 USD. Use Bitcoin to make the transfer. Wallet address is bc1qej30uk9medzyykvaghg38dtry7xuyc0f3fzg78 , it's unique and I will know that you made the payment immediately. You have 2 days to make the transfer, I think that's reasonable. Take care.
