I received an email scam a few days ago which was new to me, only this time got a bit more of my attention, as it had my email and on old access password.

The crux of the email is that it has bugged your machine and taken video through your webcam of you watching porn. The threat was that if I didn't pay $1000 in to an anonymous bitcoin account within 48 hours all of my contacts would receive the video and a complete record of my browsing history. When I googled it it seems this is becoming more prevalent, with some paying the 'ransom' and record of some being drawn to taking their own lives. Of course I have no concerns in relation to my browsing, but the main point is, its bollux and a real low aim at people who feel their whole life could be turned upside down.

.......if only they could find these scumbags.
