Com'è possibile constatare, nella mail viene affermato che il database relativo al sito in questione è stato violato e scaricato per intero al fine di vendere il suo contenuto al miglior offerente, ciò al solo scopo di danneggiarci qualora non pagassimo 3000$ in Bitcoin.
Come la maggior parte delle truffe, anche questa fa leva sulla paura e sull'urgenza di seguire le istruzioni per impedire all'utente di pensare lucidamente. In realtà nessuno ha hackerato il nostro database, stanno solo tentando di estorcerci del denaro.
Inutile dire che la cosa migliore da fare con queste email è non rispondere e cancellarle immediatamente.
