If getting to work was not bad enough I get this to my email:
I am well aware {YEARS OLD PASSWORD} is your pass word. Lets get directly to the purpose. There is no one who has paid me to investigate you. You may not know me and you're probably thinking why you're getting this mail?
Well, I actually setup a software on the adult videos (pornography) web-site and you know what, you visited this site to experience fun (you know what I mean). When you were watching videos, your internet browser began working as a Remote control Desktop with a key logger which gave me access to your screen as well as web camera. Immediately after that, my software program gathered your entire contacts from your Messenger, Facebook, as well as e-mailaccount. After that I created a double video. First part displays the video you were viewing (you've got a fine taste rofl), and 2nd part shows the view of your webcam, yea its you.
You got only 2 choices. Let us explore these possibilities in particulars:
Very first choice is to neglect this email message. Then, I most certainly will send out your actual videotape to just about all of your personal contacts and just consider concerning the embarrassment you can get. And consequently in case you are in an important relationship, just how it will certainly affect?
Latter alternative is to compensate me $1000. Lets regard it as a donation. In this instance, I most certainly will instantly eliminate your video footage. You can continue on your way of life like this never took place and you would never hear back again from me.
You'll make the payment via Bitcoin (if you do not know this, search "how to buy bitcoin" in Google search engine).
BTC Address to send to: 15suYjWTYcrC8Ez9wfzj2oeZA9k1Qaoo...
[CASE-sensitive so copy & paste it]In case you are making plans for going to the cops, okay, this e mail can not be traced back to me. I have dealt with my steps. I am not attempting to ask you for money a whole lot, I only want to be paid for. You now have one day to make the payment. I have a special pixel in this e mail, and at this moment I know that you have read this email message. If I don't get the BitCoins, I will send out your video recording to all of your contacts including relatives, colleagues, and many others. Nonetheless, if I receive the payment, I will destroy the recording immediately. It is a nonnegotiable offer therefore please don't waste my time and yours by responding to this email. If you want proof, reply with Yup! then I will certainly send your video to your 13 contacts.
Really ...
- Ach't, this has been doing the rounds a lot - you'r ein th emillions. Don't take it personally.detritus
- I got an amusing equivalent that .. didn't have my password in, rather just a vague threat and a demand for bitcoin. Daft.detritus
- Had this last week. It's v.common, worry not.fadein11
- I would laugh but it to my work email which does have rather heavy hitting film companies in my inbox!mugwart
- not the best source but:
https://www.mirror.c…fadein11 - ^ it is the mirror but it is more-or-less the same email! Cunts!mugwart
- yep, so many people pay up it works for them. The password element is the scary part.fadein11
- they take the passes from old breaches that float around the internet. check your email address here to know about the probable source: haveibeenpwned.comuan
- and update your passes if necessary.uan
- 'software program'kingsteven
- I received the same shit and moved it to the spam folder... mentioned password was wrong though.SimonFFM
- Can I pay him to see the video?drgs
- Post the full BTC address, I want to see how many are payingdrgs
- ^^ sure thing drgs. Might put you to shame though ;-)mugwart
- do not worry, some kids stole or bought a database with stolen passwords an e-mails and sending these out. They have nothing logged or screenshots etc. relaxmekk
- Had an similar email saying they saw me watching porn near my living room window pervious night. I was sat near window using laptop to do some AE work.shapesalad
- I don't watch porn, so that was nonsense. But I can see how if you mail that to enough guys, some will feel it applies to them and pay some btc.shapesalad
- "I have an unique pixel within this email message, and right now I know that you have read this email" Wow, I want some of those unique pixels.shapesalad
- Well, 'unique pixels' are, for example, how Facebook tracks users, so it's not like they don't exist (described in layman's terms).detritus
- I even used them for a while here on QBN, a long time ago, when I was trying to work out the approximate location of a user. Didn't work, of course... :)detritus
- Why not? I too used sniffer pixelsdrgs
- I didn't persist with it long enough to filter out noise.detritus
- I got this too. Never looked at anything on the computer. Googled it and this scam has been going around. trash it and move on. nothing to worry about.capn_ron
- I dont have a webcam so I know it'd fake if i receive one of those fishing scam, and if i ever have a webcam on a laptap one day, i'll tape it off.Bennn
- my webcam has tape over it! My windows box has no camera on it at all.mugwart
- see, you're okBennn
- had one of those emails last year.. ignored. figured if people don't know I masturbate by now, then I guess will now.autoflavour
- Same. No web cam. And I'm also that guy who has tape over the front facing camera on his phone.pango
- Coworker just got a very similar email.Hayoth

Have any of you lot learnt Python recently and could point me in the direction of a good starting point/learning portal?
- https://www.python.o…dorf
- hah, thanks - apart from that though :)
I mean, like walkthroughs, vids and courses? I'm a programmotard..detritus - have you tried codecademy? or is there something in particular you want to learn?dorf
- I find that, the Holy Grail, is a good place to start. then maybe Life of Brian before moving into Meaning of lifeGnash
- If you're new to python, starting with the films help to see the tv series with a brighter lightGnash
- working on it.plash
- ive been using the https://www.anaconda… IDEplash
- Thanks, dorf & Plash - I actually missed the tutorial links on the python page, dorf *shame* I just want to expand my poor skillset and catch up on digital...detritus
- ..and from what I understand, Python seems like a well-rounded catch-all for a variety of end tasks - particularly, not limited to web.detritus
- Also, 'easy to learn', but i'm sure I can challenge that! :)detritus
- http://snippets.read…sted
- github: python-snippets
lots of these have proper comments, and it's the best to learn from the examples.sted - let me know if you need any help. I code with it when I have tomugwart

python with trevor payne is pretty greatmugwart - Scripting python is like going out drinking with a crazy mate. Starts off amazing and fun but at some turns just bad and painfulmugwart
- its due to runtime/no precompiler. Its dangerous! So when you start learning - learn unittests. Can not advice more than thatmugwart
- Also dont worry about IDE's use vim and the terminal tool set at the start - IMAO.
IDE's get clunky and get in the way of learning. That said pycharm is good.mugwart - I'll probably just stick with SublimeText ;)
Thanks, muggles.detritus - ^ get good and want to sell your soul for film work, let me know!mugwart
- ^^^ Fuck VIM, use IDE's.section_014
- ^^ nar - especially when your beginning!
Though I did just switch to clion due to debugging. Vim bindings and clion is heavenmugwart

Old fella next door is fixing up his garden, which is long and a royal fucking mess. He's even building cold frames and potting benches and more. He starts at around 6am, right beneath the bedroom window, every day.
First up he rummages around in his pile of timber, which promptly falls down. This is quickly followed by an incredulous, world-weary Fuuuuuuuuuuckin Hell. As though that was the last thing that should have happened, curse his luck - even though it happens every single day. Timber pile topples - 15 seconds for the tragedy to sink in - Fuuuuuuuuuuckin Hell. Like a cockerel with tourettes.

I knowBennn - ha, I know you doFax_Benson
- When you hear him rummaging, open the window and shout "lookout!" and pre-emt his pile-fall ;)microkorg
- Return the favour by playing bassy music, overlaid with a sample of his swearing, at 2am, aimed through his wall.detritus
- Actually, sack the bassy music - just replay his shit back at him at a time he'd find inconvenient.detritus
- I'd love to but lack the equipment, patience and work ethic to pull it off.Fax_Benson

F'ing Windows.
File Directory Search for files, *searchterm, finds:
01_searchTerm
02_searchTerm
04_searchTerm
05_searchTerm
06_searchTerm
07_searchTermFuck, 03_searchTerm's missing?
*go on hunt in other disks and emails to find it...*
There it is - right there in an email, as sent to client. What gives? Go back to directory, and of course, it's there. Just, for shits and giggles, the search functionality didn't want to find it.
Great stuff. Thanks Windows!

Watch two videos from the same channel on YT and 80% of your recommended videos will be from that channel, *and* it'll recommend the channel below. Stupid algorerhythm.
