Here is a nasty one, which I actually received and have copy-pasted here. Don't believe them; it's just a scare-tactic to get you to transfer virtual money to fraudsters.

ATTENTION: yourname@here.com

The last time you visited a porn website with teenagers, you silently
downloaded and installed the software I developed.

My software has turned on your camera and recorded both your screen and an
act of your mɑsturbation..

My sneaky program also downloaded all your email contact lists and a list of
your friends from social networks.

I have the - yourname.mp4 video file - with you jerking off to teenagers, as
well as a file with your relatives and associates email addresses.

After downloading those files let me say one thing: your fantasies are far
beyond the normal!


If you want me to delete both files and keep your secret, you must send me
the Litecoin (LTC) payment.
Litecoin is a secure cryptocurrency, very similar to BTC.
I give you 72 houɼs only to send the Litecoin transfer.

If you don't know how to pay with Litecoin, visit Google and search - how to
buy Litecoin (LTC).
Visit one of the brokers (Coinbase, Bitstamp, anycoindirect), buy Litecoin
(LTC) and send it to my address.
Only then I will leɑve you ɑlone!

At anycoindirect you can pay instantly with SEPA, Giropay, EPS, Mybank,
Sofort, credit cards or Bancontract.

******************************************
Send 2.000 GBP (57.352376 LTC) to this Litecoin address as soon as possible:

MJrgZGT4sLrXqqD32d5hzsBsoXGTFYCSEE

(copy & paste - it's case sensitive)

1 LTC = 34.85 GBP right now, so send exactly 57.352376 LTC to my Litecoin
wallet.
******************************************

Do not try to cheat me!
As soon as you open this Email I will be notified you opened it.
I am monitoring all actions on your device..

This Litecoin address is linked to you only, so I will know immediately when
you send the correct amount.
When you pay in full, I will remove both files (your mɑsturbation video and
your contact lists) and I will deactivate my sneaky program.
Changing your password will not help you, I will still have access to your
device remotely.

If you choose not to send me the Litecoin transfer...
I will send your mɑsturbation video to all your friends and associates from
your contact lists that I downloaded from your device.
Your family members will receive it as well. You will regret it, trust me.

Here are the payment details again:

******************************************
Send 2.000 GBP (57.352376 LTC) to this Litecoin wallet:

MJrgZGT4sLrXqqD32d5hzsBsoXGTFYCSEE

(copy & paste - it's case sensitive)
******************************************



You can visit police but they will not help you with solving the problem.
My program will still be installed on your device and I still will own your
mɑsturbation videos.
Police will not catch me anyway. I know what I am doing.
I do not live in your country and I know how to stay anonymous.

Don't ever try to deceive me - I will know it. My program is recording all
the websites you visit and all your key presses.
If you try to trick me - I will send this ugly video to everyone you know,
including your family members.

Don't forget the potential shame - your life can be a disaster.

I am waiting for your Litecoin payment.
You have 72 houɼs left.


Anonymous Hacker From Russia


P.S. If you need more time to buy and send me Litecoin (LTC), open your
notepad on your device and write '48h more'. Only this way you can contact
me. I will consider giving you more time before I release the video, but
only when I see that you are really struggling to buy and send Litecoin. I
know you can afford it - so do not trick me.

My sister got a phone call on her private landline from someone, claiming to be from Microsoft, who also claimed that her computer had been infected by a virus.

Of course they were the ones who then planted the virus and promptly plundered Her computer for all the data th ...[text shortened]... eople, they obviously found my phone number in her address book, and they tried the same scam on me.
Thankfully I don’t have a landline any more. I also ignore any calls from numbers that I don’t know and then block them 5 mins later. If it’s anyone of importance they can leave a message.

Yup. Definitely hitting below the belt. I'm sure some people actually fall for it, otherwise the blackmailers wouldn't try it. Of course, there is no such video; it's a bluff. Blackmail only works when the blackmailer really has some compromising materials.

Of course, having been an IT instructor for over 20 years, I have multiple layers of VPN, firewall, and AV software running which monitor any attempts to download files onto my machines.

All the people in my address book already know I'm such a nerd, I would never surf to such a web site without taking the precaution of taping over the camera on my computer and they would discount any video, even assuming there were one, allegedly depicting me doing something below my belt as a fake.
