A new sextortion scam is making the rounds that pretends to be an email from the adult site YouPorn, warning that a sexually explicit video of you was uploaded to the site and suggesting you pay to have it taken down.
Summary
A new sextortion scam is circulating, impersonating YouPorn. Victims receive an email claiming that a sexually explicit video of them has been uploaded to the site and must pay to have it removed. In the past, similar scams threatened to share explicit content with contacts unless a ransom was paid, generating substantial profits. This recent scam claims to be from YouPorn, offering a free removal link that leads to nothing and lists paid options ranging from $199 to $1,399. Victims are urged to pay via Bitcoin. Thankfully, this campaign has not been successful, but it's important to remember that these emails are scams. If you receive such an email, delete it; there is no actual video, and making payments is not advisable.
Oh, come on, practically all the males have sex with their sometime lonely selves, and cameras are everywhere now. I'd personally put a privacy shutter on my webcam.
I got hit with a variation of this scam years ago. It was a threat of leaking a video of me jerking it recorded via my webcam and sending it to my family/friends. They wanted $100-200.
Responded with OK, just send me the link when you post it. I didn't even own a webcam back then.
