Subject: Regarding Zoom Conference call
In case you didn’t get the last email. Pay attention now.
You have used Zoom recently. And I have very unfortunate news for you.
I’ll give you some background on what happened.
There was a zero day security vulnerability on Zoom app, that allowed
me a full time access to your camera and some other metadata on your
account.
Basically, you were hacked.
And as you can imagine in your worst dreams, I have made a footage
with you as a main actor.
Where you work on yourself (perform sex act to be clear). Having fun
is ok with me, but is not ok with your reputation.
Please dont blame me or yourself for this. You couldn’t know that the
camera was working.
I’m sure you don’t want to be the next Jeffrey Toobin and get
embarrassed in front of all your friends, family and colleagues.
You should get this very clear, I will send this video to all your
contacts if I dont get paid.
Are you wondering how I got your contacts and emails? Through the same
exploit, zoom app allowed me to extract all sensitive info from your
device.
So here is what we will do. You pay me $2000 in bitcoin, and nothing
of this will happen. You have 2 days to make the payment.
After I get the money, I will delete the footage and information about
you. The amount is not negotiable.
Send 0.11 Bitcoin (less than 2k USD at the current exchange rate) to
my wallet 1DbsZi3gMgnGVW4e9ytZwD1CodjRj5nC5h
Having trouble with buying bitcoin? Just google on how to buy it, it’s
very easy to use and anonymous.
P.S. Don’t try to report this to the police, I use TOR and bitcoin
can’t be traced. Do not email me back. If you do something stupid, I
will distribute the video.
Good luck. Don’t stress.
