    Been receiving emails about this for years now. Finally can trust those messages.

      I’ve been trusting them for years. It’s a miracle that they were able to setup a webcam I’ve never owned in my life and have it filming where I always go to spank one out.

        They did the same to me. I think they’ve got cameras set up all through my house. So I started walking around naked so they’ll have something nice to look at. I haven’t gotten a thank you yet though.

    The spam messages have been duly ignored for years. LOL.

    “If you have access to my computer, why are you blackmailing me? You could just steal the money from the accounts.”

    Surprised the UK age verification selfies haven’t been used to extort people yet. It’d be so easy (and is such an obvious reason why the law is bullshit).

    “Sorry, we weren’t able to verify you using your Google Account. Please take a selfie for verification.”

    “Now give us £1000, or we’ll send your picture and details of the porn you were trying to access to everyone in your contacts.”

    These days it’s pretty weak blackmail shit. A little AI doctoring can create the same videos… So even if it’s possible, that doesn’t mean it’s plausible, and nobody cares what you do in your bedroom by yourself.

      A friend of mine had this happen to him and he just told them to release it, nothing happened. He was willing to take the embarrassment if it did though is the crucial thing.
