THE FRAUDSTER’S SINISTER EMAIL SENT TO A MAIL JOURNALIST

-

Let’s get straight to the purpose. You do not know me and you’re probably wondering why you’re getting this email.

In fact, I actually set up a malware on the XXX streaming (adult porn) website and guess what, you visited this website to experience fun (you know what I mean). While you were watching video clips your web browser started functionin­g as a remote control desktop with a keylogger which provided me access to your screen and also webcam. Just after that, my software gathered your complete contacts from the messenger, social networks, as well as email account. Next, I created a video. The first part displays the video you were watching (you’ve got nice taste haha…) and second part shows the view of your web camera, yeah it is u.

There are just two possibilit­ies. Very first solution is to ignore this email. In this situation I will send your recorded material to all your contacts and thus just consider the embarrassm­ent you can get. 2nd alternativ­e will be to give me $3,000. Let us regard it as a donation. In such a case I most certainly will instantly eliminate your videotape. You will make the payment by Bitcoin. If you are planning on going to the police, look, this message cannot be traced back to me. I have covered my moves. You have a day in order to pay.
