<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carausius, post: 4445222, member: 76440&quot;]Today, I received an extortion email from someone that identified a password that I sometimes use for ancient coin related sites. Typical scam - claimed they had video of me performing an embarassing act that they would share with my contacts if I didn&#039;t pay them.&nbsp; I shared the story with an ancient coin friend who responded that he had received the exact same email two weeks ago!&nbsp; Not surprising, as we frequent and join the same ancient coin sites.&nbsp; <b>I have a suspicion that this relates to a known (tho unadmitted) breach of a certain coin auction site last year.</b></p><p><br /></p><p>Local police said they couldn&#039;t really do much about it. They advised me to just do nothing.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m telling all of you as a friendly warning.&nbsp; Chances are, many of you use the same websites, and your information may have been similarly compromised. If you receive such an email DO NOT REPLY, DO NOT PAY and do not panic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
