Untertitelung des ZDF für funk, 2017 It's not terribly sophisticated or even much of a problem, except for the rare people who send them money. Weirdly, no one is really concerned with this type of sextortion. No one really seems to care.

I think there's a couple pretty obvious reasons why, and that's the people who fall for this scam, this type of sextortion scam, they're not real eager to go report the crime because... They maybe figured out that they got scammed and as a guy who has been scammed. Wait, did you pay us extortionist? No, I sent Russian dudes like 10 grand for cryptocurrency miners.

Yeah, that must have stung a little bit. It does. And I think it's worth taking some time to talk a little bit about how I felt afterward. It is so not about the money. Losing the money sucks. Don't get me wrong. $10,000 is $10,000. But it's so humiliating. You feel like some idiot boomer. I was so mad at myself for being so stupid.

And I was honestly more mad at myself that I wasn't the scammers.

I hate talking about this, so we can totally just move on now. But this was six months ago, and it still chaps my buns to think about it. Yeah, that makes sense. I get the idea of not bothering to report something because it seems so futile. What's the point? And the other thing is, if they get the victims once, there's a good chance they're going to get the victims again.

I guess they don't generally ask for a ton of money. It's probably something negligible, say 100 bucks, 500 bucks. But the thing with blackmail is, though, you can just keep going back to that as many times as you want. Why is someone who's blackmailing you going to be honest with you about stopping blackmailing you once they have your 500 or your 100 bucks or whatever it is?

So how can people be safe when it comes to sextortion scam emails? Don't send them money. Don't click links. This is like basic Internet hygiene. At the end of the day, this is just a phishing attack. They're just phishing. I'd wager that most of the people who get got by this are the ones who click links saying like, hey, I put your nude pictures here, come check it out.

The scammers are absolutely counting on there being a non-trivial number of people who just cannot resist clicking links. die sagen, hey Mann, deine Nudes sind hier. Sie wissen, dass es einen bestimmten Art von Person gibt, der diesen Link klicken muss, der sich nicht helfen kann.
