Got this in my email this morning, should I pay up?...

From: ddamiano @ tritel.net

Hi there!

I regret to inform you about some sad news for you. Approximately a month
or two ago I have succeeded to gain a total access to all your devices
utilized for browsing internet. Moving forward, I have started observing
your internet activities on continuous basis.

Go ahead and take a look at the sequence of events provided below for your
reference: Initially I bought an exclusive access from hackers to a long
list of email accounts (in today's world, that is really a common thing,
which can arranged via internet). Evidently, it wasn't hard for me to
proceed with logging in your email account.

Within the same week, I moved on with installing a Trojan virus in
Operating Systems for all devices that you use to login to email.
Frankly speaking, it wasn't a challenging task for me at all (since you
were kind enough to click some of the links in your inbox emails before).
Yeah, geniuses are among us.

Because of this Trojan I am able to gain access to entire set of
controllers in devices (e.g., your video camera, keyboard, microphone and
others). As result, I effortlessly downloaded all data, as well as photos,
web browsing history and other types of data to my servers. Moreover, I
have access to all social networks accounts that you regularly use,
including emails, including chat history, contacts list,
messengers, etc. My unique virus is incessantly refreshing its signatures
(due to control by a driver) and hence remains undetected by any type of
antiviruses.

Hence, I guess by now you can already see the reason why I always
remained undetected until this very letter...

During the process of compilation of all the materials associated with
you, I also noticed that you are a huge supporter and regular user of
websites hosting nasty adult content. Turns out to be, you really love
visiting porn websites, as well as watching exciting videos and enduring
unforgettable pleasures. As a matter of fact, I was not able to withstand
the temptation, but to record certain nasty solo action with you in main
role, and later produced a few videos exposing your masturbation and
cumming scenes.

If until now you don't believe me, all I need is one-two mouse clicks to
make all those videos with everyone you know, including your friends,
colleagues, relatives and others. Moreover, I am able to upload all that
video content online for everyone to see. I sincerely think, you
certainly would not wish such incidents to take place, in view of the
lustful things demonstrate in your commonly watched videos (you
absolutely know what I mean by that) it will cause a huge adversity
for you.

There is still a solution to this matter, and here is what you need to
do: You make a transaction of $750 to my account (an equivalent in
bitcoins, which recorded depending on the exchange rate at the date of
funds transfer) hence upon receiving the transfer, I will immediately
get rid of all those lustful videos without delay. After that we can
make it look like there was nothing happening beforehand.
Additionally, I can confirm that all the Trojan software is going to be
disabled and erased from all devices that you use. You have nothing to
worry about, because I keep my word at all times.

That is indeed a beneficial bargain that comes with a relatively
reduced price, taking into consideration that your profile and traffic
were under close monitoring during a long time frame. If you are still
unclear regarding how to buy and perform transactions with bitcoins -
everything is available online.

Below is my bitcoin wallet for your further reference:
bc1qxlyzwzsem5dxsuv2gzjxu33qvq6mw9d0gjkxaa

All you have is 48 hours and the countdown begins once this email is
opened (in other words 2 days).

The following list includes things you should remember and avoid doing:

There's no point to try replying my email (since this email and return
address were created inside your inbox).

There's no point in calling police or any other types of security
services either.

Furthermore, don't you dare sharing this info with any of your friends.

If I discover that (taking into consideration my skills, it will be
really simple, because I control all your systems and continuously
monitor them) your nasty clip will be shared with public straight away.

There's no point in looking for me too - it won't result in any success.

Transactions with cryptocurrency are completely anonymous and
untraceable.

There's no point in reinstalling your OS on devices or trying to throw
them away. That won't solve the issue, since all clips with you as main
character are already uploaded on remote servers.

Things that may be concerning you:

That funds transfer won't be delivered to me.

Breathe out, I can track down everything right away, so once funds
transfer is finished,

I will know for sure, since I interminably track down all activities
done by you (my Trojan virus controls all processes remotely, just as
TeamViewer).

That your videos will be distributed, even though you have completed
money transfer to my wallet.

Trust me, it is worthless for me to still bother you after money
transfer is successful.

Moreover, if that was ever part of my plan, I would do make it happen
way earlier!

We are going to approach and deal with it in a clear manner.

In conclusion, I'd like to recommend one more thing... after this you
need to make certain you don't get involved in similar kind of
unpleasant events anymore! My recommendation - ensure all your
passwords are replaced with new ones on a regular basis.

I've been getting this same one for a couple of years, maybe more.
I wonder if they get any suckers? On one hand they must because
this same silly message has been hitting E-mail inboxes for so
long, so some silly people sending them money must make it worth
their while to send this junk out. OTOH, maybe this is just some
script kiddie who enjoys sending out such messages and annoying
people.

I wonder if the bitcoin link is even real?

Maybe I should do a video of me jerking off and post it to some
porno sites. Seeing this silly scam again has motivated me.

PS - No, I'm too paranoid to really do that.
