HELLO, I have to share bad news with you
Approximately a few months ago I gained access to your devices, which you use for internet browsing
After that, I started tracking your internet activities
Here is the sequence of events

Some time ago I purchased access to email accounts from hackers (nowadays, it is quite simple to purchase such things online).
Obviously, I have easily managed to log in to your email account (************).
One week later, I installed Trojan virus to Operating Systems of all the devices that you use to access your email.
In fact, it was not really hard at all.

This software provides me with access to all the controllers of your devices (e.g., your microphone, video camera and keyboard).
I have downloaded all your information, data, photos, web browsing history,all your business transactions, companies bank details and your Credit Card details to my servers.
I have access to all your Bank Details, messengers, social networks, emails, chat history and contacts list.
My virus continuously refreshes the signatures (it is driver-based), and hence remains invisible for antivirus software.
Likewise, I guess by now you understand why I have stayed undetected until this letter…
While gathering information about you,

If you have any doubts, I can make a few clicks of my mouse and all your videos will be shared to your friends, colleagues and relatives.
I have also no issue at all to make them available for public access.
I guess, you really don’t want that to happen, (you perfectly know what I mean) it will cause a true catastrophe for you.
Let’s settle it this way:

You transfer $5,000 USD to me, write to me to instruct you on how to make the payment.
After that we will forget about each other. I also promise to deactivate and delete all the harmful software from your devices. Trust me, I keep my word.
This is a fair deal and the price is quite low, considering that I have been checking out your profile and traffic for some time.
You have less than 72 hours from the moment you opened this email (precisely 3 days).
Things you need to avoid from doing:

I have created this email inside your inbox and generated the return address.
Forget about telling this to you friends. If I discover that (as you can see, it is really not so hard, considering that I control all your systems) – your video will be shared to the public right away.
Don’t try to find me – it is absolutely pointless. All the cryptocurrency transactions are anonymous.
Don’t try to reinstall the OS on your devices or throw them away. It is pointless as well, since all the Pictures and videos have already been saved at remote servers.

Things you don’t need to worry about:
That I won’t be able to receive your funds transfer, i will direct you on how to make the mayment.
Remember my trojan virus has got a remote-control feature, something like TeamViewer).
Trust me, I have no point in continuing creating troubles in your life. If I really wanted that, I would have done it long time ago!
Everything will be done in a fair manner.
