I got multiple emails saying they had hacked my computer and took over my camera which they used to record my “disgusting online activities” and if I didn't pay the 500 in crypto currency they would send the videos to everyone in my contacts.
I got that exact same e mail message a couple years ago, and every time I list something for sale I get scam e mails and texts on my cell, getting to the point that I just don't want to be bothered selling anything anymore.
I even had some clown try to convince me he was a serious buyer for a used 2002 Expedition I was selling about 10 years ago, he was going to ship it overseas from Winnipeg to Great Britain, but because he was stationed "somewhere in the ocean on a submarine", he would send his associate to pick it up, but was going to pay me an additional 5K which I was to give to the associate. Yeah right, sure. I told him to **** off, the next response I got was that he had already sent me the funds, and that the police were on the way to arrest me for fraud. Uh huh, yep, I'll be waiting for them, considering I had never given any information for payment. What a tool.
