Since these blackmail emails (black emails) go out by the millions you probably have received several of them &#8211; and if you haven&#8217;t received them yet, you probably will.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">The sad part of this whole charade is that people actually pay these self-proclaimed &#8220;hackers&#8221; who send these black emails out by the millions. If only one-tenth of one percent of the people these &#8220;hackers&#8221; send these kinds of emails to actually respond and send these &#8220;hackers&#8221; the money they demand, there can be a lot of money in it for the &#8220;hacker&#8221;. And that&#8217;s precisely why there are so many of these kinds of spam emails being sent every day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Just the other day we receive three of these black emails from three different fake (forged) email addresses from three different &#8220;hackers&#8221;. Other than removing some vulgar words and changing the bitcoin wallet address to a nonworking one, we have left the &#8220;hackers&#8221; email exactly as we received it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Please don&#8217;t worry or be afraid if\/when you get an email like this. We don&#8217;t want you to throw your money away or fear that someone is watching you. We want you to be ready and informed and safe. Don&#8217;t allow these kinds of emails to scare you and never give in to these kinds of blackmail attempts &#8211; no matter what. They&#8217;re sending these out by the millions hoping to scare a few folks into sending them money.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Here is the &#8220;hacker&#8217;s&#8221; email &#8212; and our <strong>public<\/strong> reply \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Hi there!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">I am a professional hacker and have successfully managed to hack your operating system. Currently I have gained full access to your account.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">In addition, I was secretly monitoring all your activities and watching you for several months. The thing is your computer was infected with harmful spyware due to the fact that you had visited a website with porn content previously.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Let me explain to you what that entails. Thanks to Trojan viruses, I can gain complete access to your computer or any other device that you own. It means that I can see absolutely everything in your screen and switch on the camera as well as microphone at any point of time without your permission. In addition, I can also access and see your confidential information as well as your emails and chat messages.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">You may be wondering why your antivirus cannot detect my malicious software. Let me break it down for you: I am using harmful software that is driver-based, which refreshes its signatures on 4-hourly basis, hence your antivirus is unable to detect it presence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">I have made a video compilation, which shows on the left side the scenes of you&#8230; while on the right side it demonstrates the video you were watching at that moment&#8230;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">All I need is just to share this video to all email addresses and messenger contacts of people you are in communication with on your device or PC. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Furthermore, I can also make public all your emails and chat history.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">I believe you would definitely want to avoid this from happening. Here is what you need to do &#8211; transfer the Bitcoin equivalent of 750 USD to my Bitcoin account (that is rather a simple process, which you can check out online in case if you don&#8217;t know how to do that).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Below is my bitcoin account information (Bitcoin wallet): <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">OK4U1vx7Bz97x59kLKbu33$zzx84b9x<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Once the required amount is transferred to my account, I will proceed with deleting all those videos and disappear from your life once and for all. <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Kindly ensure you complete the abovementioned transfer within 50 hours (2 days +). I will receive a notification right after you open this email, hence the countdown will start.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Trust me, I am very careful, calculative and never make mistakes.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">If I discover that you shared this message with others, I will straight away proceed with making your private videos public.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Good luck!<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Dear Mr. Good Luck!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">First, you must be a politician as you say you never make mistakes. Are you running for office this year?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Secondly&#8230; you&#8217;ve been monitoring me for months? Really? Nothing better to do? You must have been bored to death and finally decided to call it quits and go after some money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Is this an attempt to blackmail me? I don&#8217;t even have $750 to give you even if you have racy videos of me. Trust me at my age they would not be very racy even if they did exist, which we both know &#8211; they don&#8217;t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">If you had full access to my account you would have known that my webcam is disabled and you would have tried to turn it back on &#8211; but you didn&#8217;t. And even if you did &#8211; which you did not &#8211; I have black electrical tape over the lens so no one can use it. If I need to use it I enable the cam and remove the tape. But I have not used it since 2020\u00a0 for a tele-doctor visit. You have not been &#8220;monitoring&#8221; me for three years, have you?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\"><strong>I&#8217;m Sharing Your &#8220;Email&#8221; with Thousands of People!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">If you don&#8217;t want to read anymore, I want to let you know that despite your threats, I&#8217;m sharing your &#8220;message&#8221; with thousands of people so they know what a loser you are and recognize blackmail attempts from people of your ilk.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">So, go ahead, make my day &#8211; share my &#8220;private&#8221; videos with anyone you like. Make them public if you want, I dare you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">So, I&#8217;m going to let everyone know what a fake you are. I will let them know I received 11 emails exactly like yours from 11 self-proclaimed &#8220;hackers&#8221; this week alone. And every email is almost word for word like yours. Are you hackers using ChatGPT to write your blackmail letters? Or did you guys\/gals use a blackmail template?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">So, go ahead, release those racy videos you have of me. Show the world. Send them to Fox News, CNN, The Muppets, Spongebob&#8230; I don&#8217;t care.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">I hope publishing this helps to make sure that not a single person falls for your foolish blackmail attempt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\"> You&#8217;re such a loser. I can&#8217;t wait to see those racy videos of me!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">Sincerely,<\/span><\/p>\n<p>NEGBYV<br \/>\n<em><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">(Not Ever Gonna BeYour Victim)<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; &nbsp; Dear Mister Hacker Every week we get dozens of emails attempting to blackmail us by exposing videos of us doing bad things.
