As if you’d pay $1900 US for five seconds of footage.

I’m offended! It would be at least 10 seconds of footage.

I got the email this morning. Very old password I haven’t used for yonks.
I liked the threat that they’d publish video of me rubbing one out watching stickoes. Yeah, right!
I assume everyone has just ignored them.
Nah, we watched them.

Bad assumption
3.5 billion people are online worldwide.
"…more than 5,517,748,800 hours of ■■■■ were watched on 'Hub in just 2018 That’s equal to 629,880 years of content consumed in 1 year, on just one site.*** Wikipedia
Someone is going to fall for this.
There has been a surge in Zoom use - Zoom was hacked.
Schools are using Zoom as a tool for interactive student contact in remote learning.
It was something a bit older than zoom, the links between passwords and email addresses, seems to be using passwords maybe older than 5 years. For instance I have never used Zoom and the password they had has been unused by me for at least 5 years except for 2 sites I rarely use.

In all honesty if someone from Russia or wherever asked me for my Blitz password, I’d just give it to them on the condition that If they worked out a way to make money from it they have to let @Mendozaaaa know

There is a surge of scamming going on at the mo. Plenty is targetted at whatever screen-based activities they think people are up to while locked down. I got a couple of bogus emails from ‘Netflix’ this morning.
I’m starting to feel left out.

All quiet here. Maybe it’s because we are self-isolating and rarely going out!
Simple and effective. Best chuckle all day.

This scam has just been mentioned on the ABC News. Its become very very prevalent. Apparently.
Reportedly the Zoom tool for schools was hacked to bring in ■■■■ content. Teachers physically supervising the kids doing remote learning at the school were super impressed at the improvements in the kids spans of attention, until they logged in - their own attention span zoomed.
Most of the reported Zoom “hacks” aren’t actually hacks, by the way.
They’re the equivalent of a Blitzer giving their password to a FarkCarlton supporter.
A bit like someone gave @Diggers a Blitz password yoinks ago, and now we’re stuuuuuuuuck with him.

I just got my fourth, only this time with more threats.
The password they’re threatening to expose me through is one I haven’t used for 15 years and certainly never used on my desktop.
Anetta Mazenga…that’s the name.
