Many emails received to various email addresses on my domain

Typical email sent from own address, claiming attacker record pleasuring yourself watching a video of highly controversial content. Pay me or I send info to everyone

They demanded $1450 USD in the next 48 hours. I did not lose anything as I will not pay criminals.

Basic sextortion scam - gained access to computer, took compromising pictures, pay up or I'll share them.. etc etc.

Received mail saying that he installed a trojan and has all my files. Requesting for deposit to bitcoin wallet for non disclosure of allegedly compromised information.

Received email arounusly from myself claiming that they had hacked my emails and devices. Also claimed that had recorded me with webcam. Demaded $1450 in bitcoin sent to wallet or they would release the recordings. All claims were false.
