I just received this email. (I only use this password and email combination on RageZone.)

I am well aware ‘MyRageZonePassword’ is one of your pass words. Lets get directly to point. Not one person has compensated me to investigate about you. You do not know me and you're most likely thinking why you are getting this e mail?

Well, i actually placed a malware on the xxx streaming (porn material) website and you know what, you visited this web site to experience fun (you know what i mean). While you were viewing videos, your browser initiated functioning as a Remote Desktop with a key logger which provided me with access to your display as well as webcam. immediately after that, my software program gathered all of your contacts from your Messenger, FB, and e-mail . Next i made a video. First part displays the video you were watching (you have a fine taste hahah), and next part shows the recording of your cam, & its you.
You do have just two solutions. Why dont we explore each one of these options in aspects:
Very first option is to skip this e mail. Consequently, i most certainly will send out your very own video recording to every bit of your contacts and consider regarding the disgrace you experience. and consequently if you are in a loving relationship, how it can affect?
Second solution will be to give me USD 969. Let us name it as a donation. in this scenario, i most certainly will without delay discard your video footage. You will carry on daily life like this never occurred and you would never hear back again from me.

You will make the payment by Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search for 'how to buy bitcoin' in Google).
BTC address: 18z…6Td

[CaSe SeNSiTiVe so copy and paste it]

if you are planning on going to the authorities, okay, this mail cannot be traced back to me. I have covered my moves. i am not trying to demand a huge amount, i simply want to be rewarded. email message%}, and no6Td if i don't get the bitcoin, i will, no doubt send out your video recording to all of your contacts including relatives, co-workers, and many others. However, if i do get paid, i'll erase the video immediately. If you want to have proof, reply Yup and i definitely will send out your video to your 7 friends. This is a non-negotiable offer, thus please don't waste my time & yours by responding to this mail.

he looks sincere, better you pay ( i'm kidding )

and whathell dude, this isnt a password, use good combinations for it.
by the way, if you really have a webcam, you should care about because he's saying about you get a vírus through porn website, doesnt seems to be related with ragezone since (i believe) MentaL keep passwords hashed in rgz database and a leak will not expose your password.
anyway, have a good luck in this thing, i wish nothing bad happen with you !

I gotta admit that scamming is pretty pathetic, however rest assure that these are always hoaxes Bola I'd recommend that you just don't ever reply to If and what CMB possibly mentioned, good luck.

haha i'm not the thread owner bro, by the way, is really complicated situation since thread owner has a password leaked from rgz.

anyway look at this, thanks to w3bm4ster for those links

Haha i got the same email twice from differen't email addresses.
Really old password, that i havent used in ages, they probably get them from leaked databases there are tons out there.

Though if it really was your current rz password, it would be odd as they didn't obtain it thru any virus or what ever.

I honestly doubt ragezone has been compromised.

Might want to check your email here: to see if it's been breached other places.

Ah yes, it has. I forgot it could be due to old passwords. Now I only used it on RageZone, but I used to use the same password on other sites. Sorry for the fuss.

As long as these adress balances (and probably hundreds of others) remain zero no one fell for it.

Hah damn. On one hand it sucks that someone fell for it, but on the other hand, the fact we can check these transactions is exciting.
