Scam Alert!

ScamWatch

 

Bulk email extortion scam targets Australians

 

Criminals are emailing people and falsely claiming they have hacked into their computers or webcams and have access to compromising images and videos of them. These criminals are threatening people by saying they will release the images and videos unless they’re paid. They include personal details such as birth dates and addresses in the emails to intimidate people into sending them money.

 

These personal details are most likely from previous public data breaches. Anyone receiving this scam email should know that there is no evidence that the criminals sending these emails really do have access to people’s webcam or computer.

 

There have been hundreds of reports recently of people who have been targeted in this way.
