3 x 1450 dollard asked, none paid

Another fake hacker trying to extort money claiming to have taken control of my computer, offering no evidence other than having my email address. Nothing stated is real and is quite generic. Now it seems these scam emails are using non-English characters in an attempt to thwart junk/scam email filters.

An attempt of sextortion to scam me (didn't end well for the scammer, as I know I didn't anything explicit), at the beginning, it shows only my email, maybe they tried to set the name of the sender the same email address I use (Attempt of spoofing of myself?). I didn't fell for the scam but I wanted to report this anyways. I provided a video where I show the whole email, however, I'll send it here anyways: ---------------------------------------------------- A new payment schedule has been approved for: nicojara04-844 Hello, I am reaching out to inform you of a serious issue that requires your immediate attention. You have a chance to resolve this situation, but you must act quickly. I have installed sophisticated spyware, known as Hermit, on your devices. This spyware grants me access to all your online activities, including your webcam, messages, emails, and call logs. It functions on Android, iOS, and Windows devices, and I have been monitoring you for several months. During this time, I have obtained several videos of you engaging in highly explicit activities. Given the nature of these videos, you likely do not want them shared with your friends, family, or colleagues. Here’s what will happen if you don’t comply: I will distribute these videos to everyone in your contact list—through WhatsApp, Telegram, Skype, and email. This exposure will have severe consequences for your personal and professional life. To prevent this, you must act now. Transfer $844 USD to my Bitcoin wallet address below: Bitcoin Wallet Address: bc1qaw69le0puwy57v6mk5kzcys9j4jayaqanc8v8k Once I confirm the payment, I will delete all compromising videos and remove the spyware from your devices. My sole interest is financial gain; otherwise, I would have already shared the videos. You have exactly 48 hours from the moment you open this email to make the payment. If you’re unfamiliar with how to use Bitcoin, search for “crypto exchange” to get instructions. Important Warnings: Do not contact the authorities. I will immediately release the videos if I detect any police involvement. Do not attempt to reset or destroy your devices. I already have compromising information with you. Remember, cryptocurrency transactions are anonymous, so tracing me through the Bitcoin address is impossible. Act now to avoid irreversible damage.

Email sextortion

Received a sextortion scam email

Hello there! Unfortunately, there are some bad news for you. Around several months ago I have obtained access to your devices that you were using to browse internet. Subsequently, I have proceeded with tracking down internet activities of yours. Below, is the sequence of past events: In the past, I have bought access from hackers to numerous email accounts (today, that is a very straightforward task that can be done online). Clearly, I have effortlessly logged in to email account of yours. A week after that, I have managed to install Trojan virus to Operating Systems of all your devices that are used for email access. Actually, that was quite simple (because you were clicking the links in inbox emails). All smart things are quite straightforward. (>_<) The software of mine allows me to access to all controllers in your devices, such as video camera, microphone and keyboard. I have managed to download all your personal data, as well as web browsing history and photos to my servers. I can access all messengers of yours, as well as emails, social networks, contacts list and even chat history. My virus unceasingly refreshes its signatures (since it is driver-based), and hereby stays invisible for your antivirus. So, by now you should already understand the reason why I remained unnoticed until this very moment... While collecting your information, I have found out that you are also a huge fan of websites for adults. You truly enjoy checking out porn websites and watching dirty videos, while having a lot of kinky fun. I have recorded several kinky scenes of yours and montaged some videos, where you reach orgasms while passionately masturbating. If you still doubt my serious intentions, it only takes couple mouse clicks to share your videos with your friends, relatives and even colleagues. It is also not a problem for me to allow those vids for access of public as well. I truly believe, you would not want this to occur, understanding how special are the videos you love watching, (you are clearly aware of that) all that stuff can result in a real disaster for you. Let's resolve it like this: All you need is $1450 USD transfer to my account (bitcoin equivalent based on exchange rate during your transfer), and after the transaction is successful, I will proceed to delete all that kinky stuff without delay. Afterwards, we can pretend that we have never met before. In addition, I assure you that all the harmful software will be deleted from all your devices. Be sure, I keep my promises. That is quite a fair deal with a low price, bearing in mind that I have spent a lot of effort to go through your profile and traffic for a long period. If you are unaware how to buy and send bitcoins - it can be easily fixed by searching all related information online. Below is bitcoin wallet of mine: bc1qhdzrwgmt9qhd2zg44c8ph4ruhcdfyna0vwlup5 You are given not more than 48 hours after you have opened this email (2 days to be precise).

Hi, I am a hacker, and I have successfully gained access to your operating system. I also have full access to your account. I've been watching you for a few months now. The fact is that your computer has been infected with malware through an adult site that you visited. If you are not familiar with this, I will explain. Trojan Virus gives me full access and control over a computer or other device. This means that I can see everything on your screen, turn on the camera and microphone, but you do not know about it. I also have access to all your contacts and all your correspondence. Why did your antivirus not detect malware? Answer: The malware I used is driver-based, I update its signatures every 4 hours. Hence your antivirus is unable to detect its presence. I made a video showing how you satisfy yourself in the left half of the screen, and the right half shows the video you were watching at the time. With one mouse click, I can send this video to all your emails and contacts on your social networks. I can also make public all your e-mail correspondence and chat history on the messengers that you use. If you don't want this to happen, transfer $1190 in Bitcoin equivalent to my Bitcoin address (if you do not know how to do this, just search "buy bitcoin" on Google). My Bitcoin address (BTC Wallet) is: bc1qs69a2mgwu2x9jdjqncrlnfm8kws77qa3hg609u After confirming your payment, I will delete the video immediately, and that's it. You will never hear from me again. I will give you 50 hours (more than 2 days) to pay. I will get a notice, when you open this email, and the timer will start. Filing a complaint somewhere does not make sense because this email cannot be tracked like my Bitcoin address. I never make any mistakes. If I find that you have shared this message with someone else, the video will be immediately distributed. Best regards!

Classic sextortion email, using an email address that was leaked in either an old LinkedIn or Dropbox hack. Tried to fake "using" my own mailserver / email domain.

I have not been scammed but reported the malicious address

The fraudsters claim to have hacked the computer and camera and threaten to publish alleged intimate video recordings if payment is not made.

Hello, my perverted friend. We've actually known each other for a while, at least I know you. You can call me Big Brother or the All-Seeing Eye. ...
