I have dealt with this vendor before and he does have my information. Feeling very uneasy right now. Acct supposedly hacked by Mr Nice Guy.
Was sent a PM this morning saying if I didn't pay 2 BTC to an address within 48 hrs, he would alert LE to my information.
On one hand, it seems unlikely that he would actually go through and call the police for all of his customers, much less explain how he got the info. On the other hand, he totally could. Yet, what guarantee do we have even if we did cough up?
Advice needed ASAP please. What do I do?
(Sorry if I sound paranoid or stupid, but the prospect of this is quite scary to me.)
Scam and he's bluffling. Eventually him releasing information to the L.E. will get his ass in trouble soon aswell. This scam has been used numerous times, don't do it.
