Sextortion email
A mass blackmail email claiming to have intimate videos of you and demanding payment, usually in bitcoin.
A sextortion email says the sender hacked your webcam or computer and recorded you, and threatens to send the video to your contacts unless you pay. It's sent to millions of people at once: there is no video. Some versions quote an old password from a data breach to look convincing.
Don't pay and don't reply; change the password if one is quoted. Fishi recognises sextortion emails in four languages. Forward one to check@fishi.email for a clear answer.
