I just recieved a threatening email today hopefully it is a scam! And luckily I think it is because the structure of the email was literally exactly the same as the email used in example 3 of the video
Hello! First and foremost, it's crucial to talk to your parents or another trusted adult about what occurred. Moreover, we strongly advise reporting the incident to the relevant authorities.
@@mSpy I’ve reported it to the police who are doing further investigating and I’m 22 years old so I’ve warned my close friends and family just in case they receive
hey i got one too and as I read it I felt sick. I have researched all day about it and I think that it is a scam. I am still very scared though. I can't speak to my parents or anything aswell because i'll be in trouble for being on those sites :(
Hello! We are sorry to hear about your situation. However, we recommend discussing this with an adult.
@@mSpy hii i am from india and i received the same message with my phone number first 4 digit and last 4 digit middle 3 digits was hidden with x mark is it scam
I got the email today(30/09/2024). They asked for $1300 to transfer their wallet. And they have given 48 hours to transfer money otherwise they will distribute my picture, recorded videos what they have recorded as they said. I am too much upset today. What’s that??
Hello! We are sorry to hear you’re dealing with this situation. It sounds like a scam and we strongly encourage you to ignore emails like this and avoid any engagement with them. However, if you feel threatened in any way, please don’t hesitate to reach out to the authorities for support.
I've received such emails...
I dealt with this shit too many times I even told him I don’t want any contact with these people. I didn’t two or three times before but this time I didn’t give them anything.
I received one in pdf format yesterday in my iPhone I did read the message in the pdf format should I call police and does my iPhone got hacked later on?
Hello! The possibility of a phone being hacked through opening a PDF file exists, but it is quite rare. To reduce the risk, it is important to use reliable PDF viewing applications and keep them updated regularly. Additionally, we strongly advise against clicking on any links or opening PDF files from unknown or malicious sources.
We recommend changing the passwords for your accounts and ignoring similar emails in the future.
Also, you may want to report it to local authorities or cybersecurity professionals. The police can offer guidance on whether further action is necessary.
@@mSpy I just open it at my gmail website still got hack ?
If you only opened a phishing email on your Gmail site, it alone should not lead to your account being hacked. However, if you clicked on any links or downloaded attachments from that email, it could be dangerous. Therefore, we recommend changing your account passwords.
@@mSpy thank you for your help。 I did bring my phone to Apple Store, they help me check up my phone… now is all good 👍
You are welcome! We are glad to hear that everything is going well for you.☺️
