In a nutshell -- sent me an old password, said they had a very *yikes!* video of me that they'll send to my contact list unless I sent the $2000 in bitcoin. And this guy had the AUDACITY to send me this on my birthday!!!

He’s telling me he has a video of me master baiting and he’s going to send it to my family if I don’t send him $3,500. Told me he’ll make sure I live out of embarrassment for the rest of my lifetime, unless I send the money in 24 hours.
Used partial password and threat of releasing intimate video recordings (not plausible lmao) in attempt to blackmail me.
