spacem18446yI had that same threat - I looked up the password they sent in my password manager since I always use unique passwords. I found it was from some site I purchased cvs software from many years ago. That site must have got hacked and had their password list leaked. So they didn't actually hack my email.
-
Awlex182756y@spacem yeah, I think that guy had multiple password sources. Idk where that password he sent me came from. I haven't brought a cvs software or something similar either.
-
Root825576ySuch appalling grammar and spelling.
Also: compromising someone's OS via email? 😅 I mean, nobody uses Outlook anymore, do they?
If you're going to scare someone, at least try. -
Kanimaru7806yHad same with my weakest password I have (8 years ago). And i know why i use it on insecure sites xD

Awlex182756y@TitanLannister Have to split it
Hello!
I'm a programmer who cracked your email account and device about half year ago.
You entered a password on one of the insecure site you visited, and I catched it.
Your password from <my_email> on moment of crack: <my_password>
Of course you can will change your password, or already made it.
But it doesn't matter, my rat software update it every time.
Please don't try to contact me or find me, it is impossible, since I sent you an email from your email account.
Through your e-mail, I uploaded malicious code to your Operation System.
I saved all of your contacts with friends, colleagues, relatives and a complete history of visits to the Internet resources.
Also I installed a rat software on your device and long tome spying for you.
You are not my only victim, I usually lock devices and ask for a ransom.
But I was struck by the sites of intimate content that you very often visit. -
Awlex182756yI am in shock of your reach fantasies! Wow! I've never seen anything like this!
I did not even know that SUCH content could be so exciting!
So, when you had fun on intime sites (you know what I mean!)
I made screenshot with using my program from your camera of yours device.
After that, I jointed them to the content of the currently viewed site.
Will be funny when I send these photos to your contacts! And if your relatives see it?
BUT I'm sure you don't want it. I definitely would not want to ...
I will not do this if you pay me a little amount.
I think $750 is a nice price for it!
I accept only Bitcoins.
My BTC wallet: 1QHEbZG8NQT6vYCC8pyHvteNcmJ78B3ak3
If you have difficulty with this - Ask Google "how to make a payment on a bitcoin wallet". It's easy.
After receiving the above amount, all your data will be immediately removed automatically.
My virus will also will be destroy itself from your operating system. -
Awlex182756yMy Trojan have auto alert, after this email is looked, I will be know it!
You have 2 days (48 hours) for make a payment.
If this does not happen - all your contacts will get crazy shots with your dirty life!
And so that you do not obstruct me, your device will be locked (also after 48 hours)
Do not take this frivolously! This is the last warning!
Various security services or antiviruses won't help you for sure (I have already collected all your data).
Here are the recommendations of a professional:
Antiviruses do not help against modern malicious code. Just do not enter your passwords on unsafe sites!
I hope you will be prudent.
Bye. -
@Root People still use outlook, a lot... Unfortunately, i know because i have to support that dump shit software.

3 transactions so far totalling 0.35907096 BTC. Yeah this guy is going places and definitely not someone you want to mess with.
The bigger crime though is that grammar
