Hi! I have some bad news. If you don\'t be a porn fan - nothing will happened with you.

Your device was under my controll few times ago. I put a private virus on 200 porn pages, known as RaDaPa. When you touched porn vid your device allowed to show the screen and camera rec via wrtc and jscript . Then I found your webpage in social resources (your coockies helped me), so I have the splitscreen vid (you, caressing yourself and record of porn vid) and all your contacts: relatives, collegues and friends. Moreover, I have put the keylog. function in your device, so I could use it as dedicated server

I can spoil your social status now so it is better to pay. 310 usd is enough for your mistake

I accept btc (cryptocurency) it is my address -

You can use virtual exchangers. After transaction write me the total sum and time. I give you 1 day since you read this letter. TrPX is inside this letter so it will show me when you open it

You can ask police to support you, but they won\'t find me today. I am under different IPs, moreover I am from Ukraine. Think twice, I think that your shame costs more than I asked to pay.

Oh noes, whatever will I do? :D
 
We got a few of these at work. They were all worded in a slightly different way (yours is slightly different also). Many laughs were had.
 
Troll him with a switcheroo ?

Dear Victor

Thank you for your interest in our latest video. Unfortunately your offer of 310 USD for the rights is considerably lower than our normal royalties.

Yours onanistically

Are my coockies betraying me too? Oh noes! I was only controlling my cookies.

We can laugh, but I expect this unpleasant person has caused some harm. They're no better than a mugger.

That's inspired.

lol, some badly translated Engrish there.

You should respond with "all your base are belong to us" :)

Another good suggestion for a giggle. It can fit with the general theme of watching a screen - "Main screen turn on".

Maybe combine the two and reply with the creative misinterpretation of their message suggested by peterwalkley but in the style of a laughably bad Zero Wing style translation.
 
Whether this is true in this case I'm not sure, but there was a radio4 programme about spam and its history and apparently the bad spelling is on purpose (or at least was on the early spams). When written properly it duped so many people that the spammers couldn't track of all the replies, so they wrote them with deliberately bad grammar on the basis that anyone stupid enough to then reply was likely to fall completely for their ruse.
I suspect this was when spam /con emails were in their early days when awareness was relatively low compared to now.
