<div class="bbWrapper">getting the below email ? im not worried about the content as i know i havent been doing what the mail says but.<br /> what worries me is the password they gave out there as its a password i have used on several casino sites?<br /> so how, why and were can it be from.<br /> <br /> <br /> It seems that, <b>xxxxxxx</b> - is your password. You may not know me and you are probably wondering why you are getting this e-mail, right?<br /> <br /> Actually, I setup a malware on the adult vids (porno) web-site and guess what, you visited this site to have fun (you know what I mean). While you were watching videos, your internet browser started out functioning as a RDP (Remote Desktop) having a keylogger which gave me accessibility to your screen and web cam. After that, my software program obtained all of your contacts from your Messenger, FB, as well as email.<br /> <br /> What did I do?<br /> <br /> I backuped phone. All the photo, video and contacts.<br /> I created a double-screen video. 1st part shows the video you were watching (you’ve got a good taste haha ...), and 2nd part shows the recording of your web cam.<br /> <br /> What exactly should you do?<br /> <br /> Well, I think, $800 is a good price for our little secret. You’ll make the payment by Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search “how to buy bitcoin” in Google).<br /> <br /> BTC Address: 1BARBfTXdwaRenZjcG8t2LAsbQm6abfw13<br /> (It is cAsE sensitive, so you should copy and paste it)<br /> <br /> Important:<br /> You have TWO days(48 h) in order to make the payment. (I’ve a unique pixel in this email, and at tis moment I know that you have read through this email message). If I do not get the BitCoins, I will certainly send out your video recording to all of your contacts including relatives, coworkers, and so on. Having said that, if I receive the payment - I’ll destroy the video immediately. If you need evidence, reply with “Yes!” and I&#039;ll send out your video recording to your 6 contacts. It is a non-negotiable offer, so don’t waste my and yours time by responding to this message</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">The could have got your password by purchasing or hacking a list from a site you signed up at. I know Facebook was hacked a short while ago and 50 million records stolen. Personally, I would simply ignore it. There is nothing to be gained by sending the video out to your contacts. I would also send the email with the email headers over to your local police department or cyber crime division. <br /> <br /> Also best to run all the available tools to remove spyware, cookies, keystroke loggers etc.</div>

But who really uses distinct passwords everywhere? Probably the same people who back up their data on a weekly basis <img src="/forums/styles/default/casinomeister/smilies/cool.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":cool:" title="Cool :cool:" data-shortname=":cool:" /></div>

 

[ternur]

<div class="bbWrapper">It&#039;s a scam. If they actually got the password right, that might have been harvested from a data breach of some site. Just change the password on the sites you&#039;re using it.<br /> <br /> Similar scam has been around these parts as well.</div>

[deaconk78]

<div class="bbWrapper">unless someone starts sending you pictures of yourself sat at your desktop pc etc then ignore it but if you have ever logged into a public computer or even a friends computer to check your fb , emails or your casino transactions and it saved your password then it only takes about 10 seconds to turn those ******* into visible text . <br /> <br /> this is a scam though as pointed out by several people - some will fall for it .. imagine just 10 people out of 100,000 at £800 quid a time . <br /> <br /> This is one of the reasons you should change your passwords regularly . <br /> <br /> By the way - if some had key logged you then they would have either emptied your casinos accounts / bank accounts for themselves or spun away your balances to zero if they couldn&#039;t remove it for their personal use .</div>
