Advisory

SCAM E-MAILS

In the past few days two residents have reported receiving emails threatening to blackmail them unless they purchased several thousand dollars in Bitcoin. The emails listed a password used by the recipients at one time, and claimed to have pornographic videos of the recipient which would be distributed to family members if the demands for Bitcoin were not met. These emails were clearly a scam intended to extort money from the recipients.
