can't "forward" unless open the message...I will not open a suspicious message, so how can I forward it?

Opening a message will not harm your device unless it has a malicious attachment and you attempt to open the attachment.

Yesterday I received an email that had one of my old passwords in the header! 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.
Cheers

I 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.

I 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.

Guess they are lowering their extortion rates, mine only wanted $1000 BTC. Anyone living in their basement or contracted govt surveillance should consider the wunderbar KARMA created for themselves by making extortion demands.. not to mention the illegal spying/stealing/deception to name a just a few other activities.

I receive about 10 spam emails a day, usually from “Jasmine” or “Sarah” saying, “Hey YOU, please stop sending me your pictures. :) Thanks,” or “All I need is a yes or no.”
They are non-stop and I get really confused when I see them. I also get “Security Alert” saying that my account sends out suspicious emails and my access to the account will be suspended if I don’t respond within 24 hours.
I always think of responding to the ridiculous emails, just to mess around with them, but I don’t want to receive more than I do.

Receiving these same identical harrassing emails for MANY YEARS - some with password warning/alert, some from Jessica, Sarah or similiar very common English name. They also often claim to be a local person/neighbor or friend from the past.
*** EMAILS ALMOST ALWAYS WANT A REPLY TO ITLGOPK.COM***
and other various repetitive addresses.
IMHO- obvious-phishing/ransom by deceptive devious blackhats!
