Sextortion Scam – These days people are receiving Spam mail with their username & password in title & claiming that hackers have your video watching Porn and they are threating you to pay in bitcoins else they will send it to your all messenger contacts. So is that true? do hackers really have your Video watching porn?
The Answer is NO
hackers don’t have any video of yours. It’s just another scam spread by hackers to steal your money. I will also explain how they got your password. Recently I also got mail in my Scam folder claiming that they have a video of mine while watching porn site & enjoying but that is not true.
A Sample of This Mail –
Don’t panic. you have not been hacked (or at least, that’s not what prompted that email). This is merely a new variation on an old scam which is popularly being called “sextortion.” This is a type of online phishing that is targeting people around the world and preying off digital-age fears.
I will explain everything but before that Please Don’t pay anything to any hacker
How they have Your Passwords & Username?
So this is a very common question these days. Recently many data breaches occurred. Zomato data breach is one of them. Zomato hacked in 2017 & around 18M people’s data leaked. Hackers got access to this data & they are now using it to Ransome users.
Do Hackers Really have Your Webcam video While enjoying porn Website?
No hackers don’t have any such video & they don’t have access to any of your contacts. This is just a scam warning so that users will be sent money to hackers so don’t believe in these emails.

What is the Solution of This Scam?
The Solution is just ignoring the mail but if you are still using the same password then I will strongly recommend you to please reset your password & change passwords everywhere. some password storing websites like 1password is also not safe so I recommend you to keep changing your passwords in a weekly or monthly basis
The Email Example is looked like below examples —
Example 1 –
You do have only 2 alternatives. We are going to understand these types of choices in aspects:
1st solution is to disregard this message. In this case, I am going to send your actual video clip to just about all of your contacts and thus you can easily imagine about the disgrace you feel. Not to mention should you be in a relationship, just how it will eventually affect?
Number two choice will be to pay me $3000. We will think of it as a donation. As a consequence, I most certainly will without delay eliminate your videotape. You will keep going on your daily life like this never happened and you will not hear back again from me.
You’ll make the payment through Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search for “how to buy bitcoin” in Google).

Example 3:-
If you were more vigilant while playing with yourself, I wouldn’t worry you. I don’t think that playing with yourself is very bad, but when all colleagues, relatives and friends get video record of it- it is obviously for u.
I adjusted virus on a porn web-site which you have visited. When the victim press on a play button, device begins recording the screen and all cameras on your device starts working.
мoreover, my program makes a dedicated desktop supplied with key logger function from your device , so I could get all contacts from ya e-mail, messengers and other social networks. I’ve chosen this e-mail cuz It’s your working address, so u should read it.
Ì think that 730 usd is pretty enough for this little false. I made a split screen vid(records from screen (u have interesting tastes ) and camera ooooooh… its awful ᾷF)
Ŝo its your choice, if u want me to erase this сompromising evidence use my ƅitсȯin wᾷllеt aďdrеss- 1JEjgJzaWAYYXsyVvU2kTTgvR9ENCAGJ35
Ƴou have one day after opening my message, I put the special tracking pixel in it, so when you will open it I will know.If ya want me to share proofs with ya, reply on this message and I will send my creation to five contacts that I’ve got from ur contacts.
P.S… You can try to complain to cops, but I don’t think that they can solve ur problem, the investigation will last for several months- I’m from Estonia – so I dgf LOL
Example – 4
I know, password, is your pass word. You may not know me and you’re most likely wondering why you are getting this e mail, correct?
In fact, I placed a malware on the adult vids (porn material) web-site and you know what, you visited this website to have fun (you know what I mean). While you were watching video clips, your internet browser initiated operating as a RDP (Remote Desktop) that has a keylogger which provided me access to your screen and also webcam. Immediately after that, my software program gathered your entire contacts from your Messenger, social networks, as well as email.
What did I do?
I made a double-screen video. 1st part shows the video you were watching (you have a good taste lmao), and 2nd part shows the recording of your webcam.
exactly what should you do?
Well, I believe, $2900 is a fair price for our little secret. You’ll make the payment by Bitcoin (if you don’t know this, search “how to buy bitcoin” in Google).

If I do not get the BitCoins, I will definitely send out your video recording to all of your contacts including family members, coworkers, etc. However, if I do get paid, I’ll destroy the video immidiately. If you want to have evidence, reply with “Yes!” and I will certainly send out your video to your 14 contacts. This is the non-negotiable offer, so please don’t waste my personal time and yours by responding to this email message.
