We had exactly the same phishing email yesterday as well. Straight to trash.

One of the sites I know my info was hacked from was Adobe themselves back in 2013 I think it was, given how many on here use Adobe, it might be worth checking. Never ceases to amaze me how many people use the same password for lots of sites.

Just logged onto my home email, and have had this sent from our local neighbourhood alert page

[TD="bgcolor: #ffffff]Cyber criminals send victims their own passwords in extortion scam
Cyber criminals are attempting to blackmail unsuspecting victims by claiming to have used the victims' password to install spying malware on the victims' computer. The criminals claim they’ve recorded videos of the victim watching adult material by activating their webcam when they visit these websites. What makes this scam so convincing is that the email usually includes a genuine password the victim has used for one of their online accounts. We believe criminals obtain the passwords from data breaches.
What to do if you get one of these emails?
Don’t reply to the email, or be pressured into paying. The police advise that you do not pay criminals. Try flagging the email as spam/junk if you receive it multiple times. Perform a password reset as soon as possible on any accounts where you’ve used the password mentioned in the email. Always use a strong, separate password for important accounts, such as your email. Where available, enable two-factor authentication (2FA). Always install the latest software and app updates. Install, or enable, anti-virus software on your laptops and computers and keep it updated.

If you receive one of these emails, report it to Action Fraud’s phishing reporting tool. If you have received one of these emails and paid the ransom, report it to your local police force.

I've probably received another 6 similar emails over the last few days!

Wow, I am surprised you have time to be on here Stitchup, away from all of those porn sites.

Yes, it's having a hit on my business too I'll have to get my priorities sorted!

Maybe there is a market for sublimation tissue boxes
