Still Another Bitcoin Extortion Email

And here we go with still another bitcoin extortion email.  Notice a familiar pattern beginning to emerge with my previous examples, namely, the false claims that my computer camera captured me viewing p*rn sites and these pictures will be sent to everyone in my email address list unless I pay within 48 hours.  It's like they are operating off the same script.  I hope people are not fooled by this (and it looks like many aren't, in the case of the scammer below):

Hello!

I'm a programmer who cracked your email account and device about half year ago. You entered a password on one of the insecure site you visited, and I catched it.

Of course you can will change your password, or already made it. But it doesn't matter, my rat software update it every time.

Please don't try to contact me or find me, it is impossible, since I sent you an email from your email account.

Through your e-mail, I uploaded malicious code to your Operation System. I saved all of your contacts with friends, colleagues, relatives and a complete history of visits to the Internet resources. Also I installed a rat software on your device and long tome spying for you.

You are not my only victim, I usually lock devices and ask for a ransom. But I was struck by the sites of intimate content that you very often visit.

I am in shock of your reach fantasies! Wow! I've never seen anything like this! I did not even know that SUCH content could be so exciting!

So, when you had fun on intime sites (you know what I mean!) I made screenshot with using my program from your camera of yours device. After that, I jointed them to the content of the currently viewed site.

Will be funny when I send these photos to your contacts! And if your relatives see it? BUT I'm sure you don't want it. I definitely would not want to ...

I will not do this if you pay me a little amount. I think $760 is a nice price for it!

I accept only Bitcoins. My BTC wallet: 18cFCmESfC6PKn8LL6HPbtK2EWLLdsryXp

If you have difficulty with this - Ask Google "how to make a payment on a bitcoin wallet". It's easy. After receiving the above amount, all your data will be immediately removed automatically. My virus will also will be destroy itself from your operating system.

My Trojan have auto alert, after this email is looked, I will be know it!

You have 2 days (48 hours) for make a payment. If this does not happen - all your contacts will get crazy shots with your dirty life! And so that you do not obstruct me, your device will be locked (also after 48 hours)

Do not take this frivolously! This is the last warning! Various security services or antiviruses won't help you for sure (I have already collected all your data).

Here are the recommendations of a professional: Antiviruses do not help against modern malicious code. Just do not enter your passwords on unsafe sites!

I hope you will be prudent.
Bye.

Another Bitcoin Extortion Email

This was in my spam folder of a brand new email address I just created and posted online a week before, indeed it's my first spam at that new address—this is no "anonymous hacker," it's just an international criminal fooling people and never having hacked a single thing:

FROM:  bonnie-877@f.an0nym0ushacked.tk

SUBJECT:  This is my last warning [elided]@[elided.com]!
BODY:

LAST WARNING [elided]@[elided.com]!

You have the last chance to save your social life - I am not kidding!!

I give you the last 72 hours to make the payment before I send the video with your masturbation to all your friends and associates.

The last time you visited a erotic website with young Teens, you downloaded and installed the software I developed.

My program has turned on your camera and recorded your act of Masturbation and the video you were masturbating to. My software also downloaded all your email contact lists and a list of your Facebook friends.

I have both the '[elided].mp4' with your masturbation and a file with all your contacts on my hard drive. You are very perverted!

If you want me to delete both files and keep your secret, you must send me Bitcoin payment. I give you the last 72 hours. If you don't know how to send Bitcoins, visit Google.

Send 2000 USD to this Bitcoin address immediately:

38ZBDg9TLrLHoJjJDbes5zsbTGTVhdPRTY (copy and paste)

1 BTC = 3470 USD right now, so send exactly 0.584058 BTC to the address above.

Do not try to cheat me! As soon as you open this Email I will know you opened it.

This Bitcoin address is linked to you only, so I will know if you sent the correct amount. When you pay in full, I will remove both files and deactivate my software.

If you don't send the payment, I will send your masturbation video to ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND ASSOCIATES from your contact list I hacked.

Here are the payment details again:

Send 0.584058 BTC to this Bitcoin address:

----------------------------------------
38ZBDg9TLrLHoJjJDbes5zsbTGTVhdPRTY
----------------------------------------


You саn visit the police but nobody will help you. I know what I am doing. I don't live in your country and I know how to stay anonymous.

Don't try to deceive me - I will know it immediately - my spy ware is recording all the websites you visit and all keys you press. If you do - I will send this ugly recording to everyone you know, including your family.

Don't cheat me! Don't forget the shame and if you ignore this message your life will be ruined.

I am waiting for your Bitcoin payment.

Bonnie
Anonymous Hacker


P.S. If you need more time to buy and send 0.584058 BTC, open your notepad and write '48h plz'. I will consider giving you another 48 hours before I release the vid, but only when I really see you are struggling to buy bitcoin.

Bitcoin Extortion Phishing

Bitcoin extortion for $1000 - note I cover my web cam and do not view "adult vids" for fun, but the password (I changed it below to one I don't use) is accurate—I suspect he cracked one site I'm on and is now trying to extort money with a fake story; I reported this as a phishing attack:

dandandan is one of your personal password and now Lets get straight to the point. You do not know anything about me whereas I know you very well and you are most likely wondering why you are getting this mail, right? I actually setup malware on adult vids (pornographic material) & guess what, you accessed same porn web site to experience fun (you know what I mean). And when you got busy enjoying our videos, your system started out working as a RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) having a backdoor which gave me accessibility to your system as well as your camera access. After that, my malware gathered all your contacts from your messenger, fb, and email. What I want? It's simply your hard luck that I discovered your bad deeds. Later I invested in more time than I probably should've digging into your data and generated a split-screen sextape. First part shows the recording you were viewing and 2nd half displays the recording of your webcam (it is someone doing nasty things). As a family man, I am ready to destroy all about you and allow you to move on with your life. And I am going to present you two options that may achieve it. The two choices are to either turn a blind eye to this email (not recommended), or pay me $1000. What can you do? Let us investigate above two options in more details. First Choice is to ignore my email. You should know what will happen if you take this option. I will send out your video recording to your entire contacts including friends and family, colleagues, and so on. It will not shield you from the humiliation your self will feel when relatives and buddies uncover your dirty sextape from me in their inbox. Wise choise is to pay me $1000. We will name it my “confidentiality tip”. Now Lets see what will happen when you opt this path. Your dirty secret Will remain your secret. I will keep my mouth mum. Once you pay, You continue on with your life and family as if none of this ever happened. You will make the payment by Bitcoins (if you don't know how all you need to do is search "how to purchase bitcoin" in google) Amount to be sent: $1000 My BTC Address: 15aCbF2BPkYQjwQ5155aL3DoBiKx1g9Qr7 (It is CASE sensitive, copy and paste it) Note: You now have one day in order to make the payment. (I have a special pixel in this e-mail, and at this moment I know that you have read this e-mail). DO NOT TELL anybody what you will be utilising the Bitcoins for or they may not sell it to you. The procedure to get bitcoins can take a day or two so do not wait. If I don't receive the BitCoins, I will certainly send out your sextape to all of your contacts including family members, coworkers, and so forth. having said that, if I receive the payment, I'll erase the sextape immediately. If you want evidence, reply with "yes!" and I definitely will send out your video to your 13 contacts. It's a non-negotiable offer, so kindly do not waste my personal time and yours by replying to this message. You should be aware that my software will be keeping tracking of the actions you take when you find yourself done looking over this message. Let me assure you that If I see any wanna-be smart activity from your search history then I'll share your video recording to your friends and family, co-workers before your time ends.

FREADOM Resurrected

FREADOM was a blog in the past that can now be found here.  I found the blog had been removed and the name was available.  So I grabbed it.  I intend to hold it in the hopes that its original owners/writers may wish to have it back.  If so, I will transfer this name back to them, if that's possible.  Okay?  In the meantime, please visit and subscribe to SafeLibraries.  Thank you.
