I have received an email. I found it in the SPAM folder.
The email subject was "this xxx is one of your passwords". He was right with my password so I opened the message.
"I wasn't asked to follow your online activity, I just put a virus in your computer and saw you masturbating over your webcam. Because I hacked your camera and I made a video side by side with you and what you are watching. Here is my bitcoin where you should throw 2917$ or I will send the video to all your facebook friends.
You can't call police because my mail is from a hacked account"
Next funny, "if you don't believe, respond with Yeah and I will send it to 8 friends to prove you so!".
Did you receive this kind of spam?
First of all: better never respond. I just deleted it, but I was upset I didn't check it longer.
I googled for my email and the pretended password, indeed I used that about 10 years ago and also read about a website hacked. Found that someone published a list of passwords a few days ago on a forum where he got banned. I found a long list of emails and passwords and I reported them.
I use a desktop computer, so I don't have a webcam as he pretended. It was a common text. And Google stated in the SPAM that this is a stealing identity message.
So my advice: if you ever get an email like that, even if you masturbated over a webcam, just ignore, never respond! The message is intended to a list of emails but the convict will look over the ones that respond with "why" "how" or anything.
There are a lot of dangerous people on the internet so take care!
PS: Why did I delete the message? Because a hacker can still make your received email tell him when you are reading it. Second advice: delete it without reading if possible!!!! I think google can protect you against this while the email is in your spam folder but I can't say for sure. I like to test things but I never checked this protection.
