Crypto Mining Blog

You probably have heard about crypto viruses that encrypt your files and demand a ransom in Bitcoin to get your data back, though even if paying the demanded BTC you may still not get access back to the data. Well it seems that a new trend is users receiving extortion emails demanding Bitcoin to be paid for no apparent reason, though they do seem to rely on “catching” novice users off guard and scaring them that some of their “dirty secrets” may be leaked to their family, friends or employer. Of course these are emails intended to scare you and are not based on real threats, they are badly written in English and not personalized to the receiver mentioning any real data or anything to sound more convincing. As a result you can pretty much ignore them as nothing more than SPAM, though we are sure that some people may actually fall for the trick and even pay the demanded 1 Bitcoin ransom. Do note however that even if the threat was real by paying what is being demanded it does not mean that the promises would be kept, just as in the case with crypto viruses!

Here is a quoted example of such an email:
