Hey. I have bad news for you!

/1.P1GhQ,

03.08.2022-On this day, I hacked your device's operating system and got full access to your account . I have been watching you closely for a long time.

I installed a virus on your system that allows me to control all your devices.

The virus software gives me access to all the controllers of your devices (microphone, video camera, keyboard, display). I have uploaded all your information, data, photos, browsing history to my servers. I have access to all your messengers, social networks, email, sync, chat history and contact list.

I learned a lot about you!

I thought what can I do with this data...

I recently came up with an interesting idea: to create a video clip in which you **** in one part of the screen and watch a **** in the other, such videos are now at the peak of popularity!

What happened amazed me!

i?8-

With one click, I can send this video to all your friends via email, social networks and instant messengers. I can also publish access to all your emails and instant messengers that you use.

In addition, I found a lot of interesting things that I was able to publish on the Internet and send to friends.

If you don't want me to do it, send me 1900 $ (US dollar) in my bitcoin wallet. My BTC wallet address:

If you do not know how to replenish such a wallet, use the Google search engine. There is nothing difficult in this. As soon as funds arrive, I will see this and immediately remove all this garbage. After that we will forget each other. I also promise to deactivate and remove all malware from your devices. Trust me, I keep my word. It's a fair deal and the price is pretty low considering I've been checking your profile and traffic for a while.

I give exactly two days (48 hours) from the moment of opening this letter for payment.

After this period, if I do not receive the specified amount from you, I will send everyone access to your accounts and visited sites, personal data, and edited videos without warning.

Remember: I do not make mistakes, I do not advise you to joke with me, I have many opportunities.

There's no point complaining about me because they can't find me. Formatting the drive or destroying the device won't help because I already have your data.

It makes no sense to write back to me - I do not write from personal mail and do not look at the answers.

>UP

Good luck and don't get angry!

Everyone has their own job, you just got unlucky today.

P.S. In the future, I recommend that you follow the safety rules on the Internet and do not visit dubious sites.

The only real way to assure yourself there is no malware is to reinstall Windows cleanly, if you can. If you choose to do this, use the Media Creation Tool to create a bootable installer for Windows, save your data to an external backup and use the tool to remove the existing partitions and recreate them, after which you can finish installing Windows cleanly.

    Hi. I'm Brian and I will do my best to help you.

    Did this person actually send you a screenshot of you? If not, then this is certainly a scam and no one had taken pictures or videos of you. He's just trying to scare you. Delete it and go on with your life. It's an idle threat.

    Are you 100% sure? Does it have all and exactly the same icons on it that you normally see when viewing your desktop? Change your Windows password, check for any accounts you don't recognize in Settings and scan your computer with an offline full Defender scan and a scan with the free Malwarebytes from malwarebytes.org. Does either find anything?
