I get many emails that claim they've hacked into my computer, have all my contacts, and have video of me. They spoof my email address to make it convincing. They use a form letter, and they usually want around $1400 to $1500 in BitCoin within 48 hours, to keep them from sending the video to all my contacts. If I had fallen for the scheme every time I got one of these emails, I would have paid over $100,000 by now.
LOL
Also: be a Patriot. Be reminded that your cell phone tracks your every move and you never know when [they] might use that against you somehow.
Be me: load pornhub and wonder which fbi agent is watching me jack off

If I paid out $10 for every grammar and spelling mistake those scammers made in their scam emails, I would have paid out $100,000 by now.
So true. When I do get on the phone with them I say, "by the way, this phone call is being recorded for quality and training purposes" Many hang up.
