You shouldn’t open such emails and browse around for a long time, but put them in the spam filter and then delete them.
The virus scanner probably won’t find anything, but your email address may end up with dubious people.

Thanks @WalterB
Both times MS Outlook automatically moved the message to the spam folder, removed the hyperlinks and converted the message to [Plain Text]. I then simply had this text translated using Google.

As mentioned, you can now also put domain names in the spam filter.
But this is not an “improved” SPam filter. You can maintain black and white lists yourself.
….keep on rockin' 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Love @POGO 1104 and @WalterB
So, in your opinion, can I assume that there were two spam emails?
Thank you for your help.

This is the translation, mostly threats.
Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to change the passwords every now and then.
Remember to pay your bills before Frist expires.
Unfortunately, I have to tell you some sad news.
About a month or two ago, I managed to get complete access to all your devices that you use to surf the Internet.
As a result, I began to continuously monitor your internet activity.
Check out the sequence of events listed below for your reference:
First, I bought exclusive access to a long list of email accounts from hackers (in today’s world, this is really a common thing that can be arranged over the Internet).
Apparently it was no problem for me to log into your email account (xyz@abc.ch).
That same week, I began installing a Trojan into the operating systems of all the devices you use to log into email.
Honestly, this wasn’t much of a challenge for me at all (since you were kind enough to click on some of the links in your email inboxes before).
Yes, there are geniuses among us.
Thanks to this Trojan I can access all controllers in devices (e.g. your video camera, keyboard, microphone and others).
As a result, I downloaded all the data as well as photos, browsing history and other types of data to my servers with ease.
In addition, I have access to all social network accounts that you regularly use, including emails, chat histories, messengers, contact lists, etc.
My unique virus constantly updates its signatures (due to control by a driver) and therefore remains undetected by all types of antivirus programs.
So I guess by now you can see the reason why I’ve always remained undiscovered until this letter…
During the process of compiling all the materials related to you, I also noticed that you are a big supporter and regular user of websites that host explicit adult content.
It turns out that you really love visiting porn websites, watching exciting videos and experiencing unforgettable pleasures.
In fact, I couldn’t resist the temptation and recorded some dirty solo actions starring you and later produced a few videos showing your masturbation and orgasm scenes.
If you haven’t believed me by now, it only takes me a click or two to make all these videos with everyone you know, including your friends, colleagues, relatives and others.
Additionally, I can upload all of this video content online for everyone to see.
I sincerely believe that you would certainly not wish such incidents to occur, given the lustful things shown in the videos you frequently watch (you know exactly what I mean by that), it will cause you great suffering.
There is still a solution to this problem, and here is what you need to do:
You are making a transfer of 1495 USD to my account (an equivalent in Bitcoins, which will be recorded on the day of the transfer depending on the exchange rate), so after receiving the transfer I will immediately and without delay delete all these lustful videos.
Afterwards we can make it look like nothing happened before.
Additionally, I can confirm that all Trojan software will be disabled and deleted from all devices you use. You don’t have to worry because I keep my word at all times.
This is indeed an advantageous deal that comes with a relatively reduced price considering that your profile and traffic have been closely monitored over a long period of time.
If you still don’t know how to buy Bitcoins and make transactions with them - everything is available online.

You only have 2 days and the countdown begins as soon as this email is opened.
The following list includes things to remember and avoid:
- There’s no point in trying to answer my email.
- There is no point in calling the police or other security services either. Also, don’t you dare share this information with any of your friends.
If I find out (considering my skills, it will be really easy since I control all your systems and monitor them continuously), your nasty clip will immediately be shared with the public.
- There’s no point in looking for me too - that won’t lead to success. Cryptocurrency transactions are completely anonymous and untraceable.
- There is no point in reinstalling your operating system on devices or trying to throw them away. This won’t solve the problem because all clips with you as the main character are already uploaded to remote servers.
Things that may worry you:
- This transfer will not be delivered to me.
Breathe out, I can

No - spam refers to unsolicited advertising emails, your example is so-called (fake) sextortion . These are empty threats, but unfortunately people always fall for them and pay the requested sum. Unfortunately, the Bitcoin wallet from your email has already received three payments.
Therefore: simply ignore such emails. If you want to be on the safe side, you can change the email password. In this case there is no reasonable suspicion of a leaked password.
Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Thank you very much @PowerMac
I probably asked too long and used the wrong term. 😞
Me and my wife just wanted to know if I can/can ignore such messages.
Now we are calm!
Have a nice evening to you.

Good afternoon dear community
