Det kom ett brev och brev ska ju som bekant betyda så mycket, eller kan göra det. Den här gången så är avsändaren en bedragare, en bluffmakare så jag väljer att svara så här – för det ska du ju göra, svara på brev.

Brevet nedan är ett av många liknande exempel med tomma hot som skickas ut i miljonupplagor ute på nätet. Det är ett exempel på ett försök att lura av dig pengar genom en rad ogrundade påståenden.

Hello pervert,

I want to inform you about a very bad situation for you. However, you can benefit from it, if you will act wisely.
Have you heard of Pegasus? This is a spyware program that installs on computers and smartphones and allows hackers to monitor the activity of device owners. It provides access to your webcam, messengers, emails, call records, etc. It works well on Android, iOS, and Windows. I guess, you already figured out where I’m getting at.

Nix, Pegasus är ett skadligt program som installeras på mobiltelefoner – inte datorer.

It’s been a few months since I installed it on all your devices because you were not quite choosy about what links to click on the internet. During this period, I’ve learned about all aspects of your private life, but one is of special significance to me.
I’ve recorded many videos of you jerking off to highly controversial porn videos. Given that the ”questionable” genre is almost always the same, I can conclude that you have sick perversion.
I doubt you’d want your friends, family and co-workers to know about it. However, I can do it in a few clicks.

Nix, då mina enheter är uppdaterade , och jag mycket sällan klickar på länkar i eller med min mobiltelefon, så är dina chanser minimala att lyckas att installera Pegasus. 

Every number in your contact book will suddenly receive these videos – on WhatsApp, on Telegram, on Skype, on email – everywhere. It is going to be a tsunami that will sweep away everything in its path, and first of all, your former life.
Don’t think of yourself as an innocent victim. No one knows where your perversion might lead in the future, so consider this a kind of deserved punishment to stop you.
Better late than never.
I’m some kind of God who sees everything. However, don’t panic. As we know, God is merciful and forgiving, and so do I. But my mercy is not free.

Jag är en lite nyfiken på vilka perversioner som avses och noterar att det nämner du inte lika lite som att du anger några adresser, länkar eller exempel. 

Transfer $1220 USD to my bitcoin wallet: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Once I receive confirmation of the transaction, I will permanently delete all videos compromising you, uninstall Pegasus from all of your devices, and disappear from your life. You can be sure – my benefit is only money. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be writing to you, but destroy your life without a word in a second.

Go ahead punk, Make My Day!

I’ll be notified when you open my email, and from that moment you have exactly 48 hours to send the money. If cryptocurrencies are unchartered waters for you, don’t worry, it’s very simple. Just google ”crypto exchange” and then it will be no harder than buying some useless stuff on Amazon.

I strongly warn you against the following:
) Do not reply to this email. I sent it from a temp email so I am untraceable.
) Do not contact the police. I have access to all your devices, and as soon as I find out you ran to the cops, videos will be published.
) Don’t try to reset or destroy your devices.
As I mentioned above: I’m monitoring all your activity, so you either agree to my terms or the videos are published.

Så du menar att det faktum att du använder Mozilla Thunderbird och att brevets hela väg innan det landat här hos mig, alla servrar som det skickats via, gör det osökbart?

Also, don’t forget that cryptocurrencies are anonymous, so it’s impossible to identify me using the provided address.
Good luck, my perverted friend. I hope this is the last time we hear from each other.

And some friendly advice: from now on, don’t be so careless about your online security.

Jag inte bara tror, utan är övertygad om att du ljuger och det är fult har min mamma lärt mig.

PS. Du får inte en spänn!
