Help.
I opened my email and there was an email which basically said that I had viewed porn and was watched mastrubating to it.
I can honestly say that I have NOT viewed porn or mastrubated to anything. I can also say with confidence that no one else has used any of my devices.
The email contained my Hotmail password!!!
It goes on to say that if I don't pay a certain amount of bitcoin then footage of me doing so will be distributed around family and friends etc.
I tried to change my password but I made a hash of it and now Hotmail are saying that I can't attempt to change it for 30 days
I'm panicking because this person obviously knows my password.
I have emails that contain receipts with my name and address etc on them from such as ocado.
I'm desperate to change my password obviously and now I'm in a real panic.
Can anyone tell me what I can do now, and has anyone else had one of these emails?
Around 6 years ago I was hit by a virus which said I had to pay £100 to get my laptop unlocked, fortunately I managed to sort it ( the police were aware of this scam and gave steps on how to clear it on their website ) but it wrecked my laptop which had to be destroyed.
Help please.
Seriously, no porn has been accessed.
I don't know what to do.
