Watch out for this email scam What's up PU guys and gals? It's been a while, still love porn as much as ever. It's just that lately I've had very little time away from work, and I tend to spend nearly all of it with my wife and friends. It leaves less time for porn, but I can't complain. Anyway, I got an email like this in my inbox a few weeks ago: "Whats poppin During all your life u was notified to surf web catiously, but you didnt. Whats the problem?- You will ask me. The whole point is that I adjusted the malicious soft on a web-site with videos for adults (site with pоrn content) (u know whats up). Object was watching video for adults and device tarted functioning as dedicated desktop with keylogger function. Furthermore all cams and screen at the 1st onset started recording. Then my virus collected all your contacts from messengers, e-mails and social networks. So what do we have now? I made the split screen vid (1st part-screen rec.(u have a nice interests lmao), second- camera rec.) and all ur contacts. I think its not good news. Consequently in my opinion two hunned ninety usd is enough for this smallwee error. My btc(cryptocurrency) wallet - [xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Ask internet how to buy it. It is not very hard. Just write "how to get btc" I give u 1 day after opening this message(I adjusted a special pixel in it, Ill know when you read it). If you dont send me the necessary amount Ill send video with you to all your contacts Upon I receive btc- the сompromising will be deleted.If u charge me to send evidence, reply + and Ill share video that I made with three contacts Ive collected from u. Can go to cops, but they will not have time to find me , im Ukranian, so ull be a star among friends." My instinct was it was a bluff, but it was still pretty jarring to get this at my work email. I Googled it, and I found that it certainly was a bluff. These guys just get email addresses, even work email addresses, by the thousands and send out mass emails like this. I think the only way you can really get yourself into trouble is if you do send money, they know you believe them, and they can then ask for more. See this article here about this exact scam: http://www.smh.com.au/technology/gadgets...20170815-gxwvxl.html I promptly deleted the email and emptied the trash, and I can say that none of my contacts got any emails from the scammers. Better to be pissed on, than to be pissed off. Edited on Feb 13, 2018, 11:25am | |

I know that it's completely irrelevant to bring up, but a couple of years ago my mother got one of those "Nigerian prince" style scam letters in the mail... I mean the snail mail. I guess that they figured they could trick more older people using the postal service rather than PCs? Anyway, I've known more than one person who has fallen for one of these ransomware type scams. They're clearly preying on the guilt that they assume most people would have about watching porn. So I am glad to hear that you saw through it. Personally, I keep my webcam physically covered at all times on top of disabling it in Windows. So although someone could log my keystrokes, they could never convince me that they made a video of me watching porn. Well, at least not on my webcam! | |
