Hello Administrator,

The following is an e-mail sent to you through the administration contact
page on "The Scottish Boinc Team".

The message was sent from a guest who specified the following contact
information:
Name: Malissa Call
E-mail address: hacker@82379.xyz
IP Address: 194.187.249.190


Message sent to you follows
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL TO SOMEONE IN YOUR COMPANY WHO IS ALLOWED TO MAKE
IMPORTANT DECISIONS!

We have hacked your website http://www.tsbt.co.uk and extracted your
databases.

How did this happen?
Our team has found a vulnerability within your site that we were able to
exploit. After finding the vulnerability we were able to get your database
credentials and extract your entire database and move the information to an
offshore server.

What does this mean?

We will systematically go through a series of steps of totally damaging
your reputation. First your database will be leaked or sold to the highest
bidder which they will use with whatever their intentions are. Next if
there are e-mails found they will be e-mailed that their information has
been sold or leaked and your site http://www.tsbt.co.uk was at fault thusly
damaging your reputation and having angry customers/associates with
whatever angry customers/associates do. Lastly any links that you have
indexed in the search engines will be de-indexed based off of blackhat
techniques that we used in the past to de-index our targets.

How do I stop this?

We are willing to refrain from destroying your site's reputation for a
small fee. The current fee is .33 BTC in bitcoins ($3000 USD).

Send the bitcoin to the following Bitcoin address (Copy and paste as it is
case sensitive):

12WghuRH7b8K7mcJvxCzWQjW7RVEAC7qgx

Once you have paid we will automatically get informed that it was your
payment. Please note that you have to make payment within 5 days after
receiving this notice or the database leak, e-mails dispatched, and
de-index of your site WILL start!

How do I get Bitcoins?

You can easily buy bitcoins via several websites or even offline from a
Bitcoin-ATM. We suggest you https://cex.io/ for buying bitcoins.

What if I don’t pay?

If you decide not to pay, we will start the attack at the indicated date
and uphold it until you do, there’s no counter measure to this, you will
only end up wasting more money trying to find a solution. We will
completely destroy your reputation amongst google and your customers.

This is not a hoax, do not reply to this email, don’t try to reason or
negotiate, we will not read any replies. Once you have paid we will stop
what we were doing and you will never hear from us again!

Please note that Bitcoin is anonymous and no one will find out that you
have complied.

Presumably this is the corporate equivalent of those emails which claim to have hacked ones webcam & captured footage of one bashing ones bishop while viewing porn, which they will distribute to your entire address book unless you send them £500 in bitcoin.
If only a tiny fraction of a percent fall for it then it's worth their while.

i should of course clarify that i have never viewed porn and indeed have no idea what it is. Furthermore I have never ever touched any part of my person except to attend to hygenic necessities!

Do I get a free pass as I donated all those Bitcoins to charity whilst racking up ridiculous BOINC points and electricity bills ?
