My gf Bri got this email yesterday (actually thought I was fukking with her but nope). If this guy could actually reel 🎣 in 50 suckers at 2k a pop, that's a cool million tax-free. I just might encourage her to file a police report since the email has to be traceable as well as the wallet address. It's not like these cocksuckers never get caught.

I’ve gotten a similar email multiple times, and yes if you check these wallets people do in-fact fall for it lol.

You just know it's from a troll farm in India or Nigeria based on the horrible grammar. You'd think they'd be smart enough to use ChatGPT to type out a coherent ransom demand.
Edit: exact same note found in a sub-reddit
Not word for word but close enough

I receive multiples of these every week. For several years now.

It's hilarious because, first of all the event they mention never happened. Second, I have no web cam. lol. Well there is one on my laptop which I taped over the day I bought it.

I never got one with real name, address on them though. They usually spoof my email address as the 'from' email address and claim that is proof they hacked into my email.

I know it's easy for them to fake that though.

These people need what I call "pain therapy". They need to have some pain inflicted upon them. If they don't stop the pain needs to be inflicted again at a higher level. This needs to continue until they stop.

This is a very effective way to get someone to stop doing something.

Unfortunately this scam has been around in some form or fashion for many years. Usually it involves Nigerian scammers. It seems like people keep falling for it because they still keep sending out these type of emails
