Worrying Email

[DJGaryBaldy]

I've just received a worrying email from a scam artist trying to blackmail me claiming he has nude webcam photos of me... That's not the worrying part (I dont use webcams)

The worrying part was he also said hed hacked me and showed a password I used here about four or five years ago

I'm sharing this because if anyone hasnt changed their password for a while it may well have been hacked from here...

I'm on a mass password change next week I know I no longer the PW used in the scam email but its got me worried.

Don't worry DJGari, it happened to me several times, of course like you saying I was watching porn videos etc etc, but unfortunately like you I don't have webcam installed on my pc...  and indeed some years ago they showed me a password I used to use. I had already changed it

Just some scammer trying to get people to pay up while trolling some security breach from years ago. I get them a couple times per year
