Hi all.
I received an email from someone demanding 10000XMP. Which I’d not heard of before. AND THIS IS THE SCARY BIT - They have one of my main passwords contained in the email, and it’s an old 12 strong password with uppercase, lowercase, numbers and isn’t a readable word either. They said they have remote control of my computer and can ruin me via the dark web unless I pay them within 2 days. But there is also an error in there. They said they have been spying on me via my web cam and headset.
But I only just built my computer last week, all new parts (mostly OCUK), using a window 10 key bought from Amazon for a few quid, and a usb windows 10 boot stick also bought from amazon. But I don’t have a web cam and the headset is still in the box, never had a chance to use it yet. All I’ve done so far is download drivers, steam and GTA5 and google chrome. I’ve not visited any porn sites, if I had I would tell you.
Now whoever he is he can ****off, he’s not getting a bean from me, I just need to know how he got my main password and how to get his access to my computer blocked. To make things worse I’m currently at work, 80 miles offshore in the North Sea, for another 8 days.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
