That was interesting. Given the list of places where I used it, it was interesting because I hadn't logged on to any of them in over 4 years. Did someone get an old server from a vendor and crack the user/password list. At this point I don't know but the scammer is very real.The individual demanded $1900 in 24 hours or they would send video of me watching p**n to my contact list. The closest to p**n I have watched since college is deadpool, but you can photoshop anything so oh well.It is sad that we live in a place where we are afraid of our own shadow, that is our online shadow, even if it is fake.If you get an email like this, forward it to spam-uce.gov, mark as junk and delete it.Cheersan anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userSep 2, 2019 at 1:35 PM by "Someone has your Password" Phishing Emailsan anonymous user from: Kansas City, Kansas, United StatesI am getting tons, not just a couple or few, from the SAME scammer, giving me the same old password, over and over again, shown as his proof to demand bit coin from me. Here's the thing though, it's my old password from my Equifax account... you know, the same one and only Equifax that announced September in 2017 that they had a data breach (got hacked into).They're NOT the only major company to have been data breached (hacked) and either... so what I think is going on is: whoever hacked them is either trying to collect off of the information stolen themselves. .. or they have listed (put out deep Web ads) been selling all the stolen passwords singularly or in lots to scammers to use as bait for their scams.an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userJul 20, 2018 at 9:13 PM by "Someone has your Password" Phishing Emailsan anonymous user from: Auckland, New ZealandI got the same one today from Annemarie Cherniack demanding $8000 in BTC or would release p**n to my contacts. The password was an old one that I found was still in use one some irregular shopping websites I had used.
