<blockquote><p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Hi, stranger! </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I know the ********, this is your password. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">As you can see, I logged in with your account. And I wrote you this message from your account. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">If you have already changed your password, my malware will be intercepts it every time. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">You may not know me, and you are most likely wondering why you are receiving this email, right? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">In fact, I posted a malicious program on adults (pornography) of some websites, and you know that you visited these websites to enjoy </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">(you know what I mean). </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">While you were watching video clips, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">my trojan started working as a RDP (remote desktop) with a keylogger that gave me access to your screen as well as a webcam. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Immediately after this, my program gathered all your contacts from messenger, social networks, and also by e-mail. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">What I&#8217;ve done? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I made a double screen video. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">The first part shows the video you watched (you have good taste, yes &#8230; but strange for me and other normal people), </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">and the second part shows the recording of your webcam. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">What should you do? </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Well, I think $723 (USD dollars) is a fair price for our little secret. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">You will make a bitcoin payment (if you don&#8217;t know, look for &#8220;how to buy bitcoins&#8221; on Google). </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">BTC Address: 1Q2yu5awJd1Z3UJVw2VckeGoLs6TfSHFQR </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">(This is CASE sensitive, please copy and paste it) </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Remarks: </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">You have 2 days (48 hours) to pay. (I have a special code, and at the moment I know that you have read this email). </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">If I don&#8217;t get bitcoins, I will send your video to all your contacts, including family members, colleagues, etc. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">However, if I am paid, I will immediately destroy the video, and my trojan will be destruct someself. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">If you want to get proof, answer &#8220;Yes!&#8221; and resend this letter to youself. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">And I will definitely send your video to your any 11 contacts. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">This is a non-negotiable offer, so please do not waste my personal and other people&#8217;s time by replying to this email. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">Bye!</span></p></blockquote>
