Betrugsmasche per E-Mail im Namen von Apple

Es existiert seit Jahren eine Betrugsmasche, wo der Empfänger eingeschüchtert und zum zahlen eines Betrages aufgefordert wird.

Bei mir war eine Variante davon in meinem Emailpostfach von , im Spamordner.

Folgender Text:

Hello pervert,

This message was sent from your own iCloud account.

You are currently in a very serious situation. However, there is a way out—if you act wisely.

Have you ever heard of Pegasus? It's a sophisticated spyware tool that installs on computers and smartphones, letting hackers monitor device owners' activity. It grants access to your webcam, messengers, emails, call logs, and more. It works seamlessly on Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows. You already understand what this is about.

Several months ago, I installed it on all of your devices. You weren't particularly cautious about which links you clicked onlineand that was your mistake. Since then, l've observed every aspect of your private life. One particular detail stood out.

I have captured explicit footage of you pleasuring yourself to highly controversial pornography. Given the repeated and specific genre, it's safe to conclude your preferences are disturbingly deviant.

I doubt you want your friends, family, or colleagues to ever see that footage. But I can make it happen—with just a few clicks.

Everyone in your contact list will receive the material: via WhatsApp, Telegram, Instagram, Facebook, email-everywhere. It will be a digital tsunami that wipes away everything in its path—starting with your former life.

Don't fool yourself into thinking you're the victim here. What's recorded reveals who you really are. Consider this your reckoning.

I see everything. But don't panic. Just like the God you might pray to, I, too, can show mercy. But mercy has its price.

Transfer 1250 USD worth of Litecoin (LTC) to the following wallet address:

Itc1 q0xt2mwzexr3u7evcch7hju7fq0h75drsacyg8v

Once 1 confirm the transaction, I will permanently delete all compromising footage, remove Pegasus from your devices, and disappear from your life. You have my word— this is strictly business. Without the payment, I'll destroy your reputation without hesitation.

I'll be notified when you open this email. From that moment, you'll have exactly 48 hours to complete the payment. If you're new to cryptocurrency, don't worry—it's simple. Search "how to buy Litecoin" or "crypto exchange," and follow the steps. It's no harder than buying something online.

You are warned:

• 
  
• Do not reply to this email. It was sent from your own iCloud account.
• 
  
• 
  
• Do not contact the police. I will know. The material will go public.
• 
  
• 
  
• Do not attempt to reset or destroy your devices. I am watching everything you do.
• 
  

And remember-cryptocurrency transactions are anonymous. You won't trace me.

This is your one and only warning.

Be smart. Stay quiet. Pay.

Die Email sah aus, als wenn sie von meinem Account kam, es war aber nur eine Alias-Adresse, also nicht wildes.

Vielleicht kann man es irgendwo anpinnen für andere Nutzer.ç
