Someone bought an emails DB

[Dimitri]

Someone just bought a database with scrapped emails. Within 10 minutes, I received 20+ emails saying the same, about recording me from my webcam and menacing me to sent the video to my contacts if I don't pay him in bitcoins...

ps: I know that it happens everyday :)

Ahh, glad you received my emails :)

What happens everyday?

Check the TLD on the email address where it comes from, usually something like .xyz .best, write a rule in email program to delete them.
