The latest scam

/u/MadManD3vi0usCryptocurrency News & Discussion https://ift.tt/R9v7AgB

As many of you have seen in your email inboxes, or here on the CC subreddit, a scammer is essentially cold calling everyone "asking" for Bitcoin. They say they have all your info and vids of you yanking it, but they'll delete everything if you send them x amount of Bitcoin. What I found most interesting after a closer inspection, is that they seem to originate from an email/website associated with TurboTax.

In my latest tax filing, I used TurboTax's "super secure" connection method to connect and export my Coinbase buy/sell information to my tax return. I'm starting to think that method may not be so secure after all, and may be the source of all of these weak extortion attempts.

Does anyone else have any similar experiences or connections?

Edit: Just for clarity's sake, I'm referring to the "You got owned" email that everyone is talking about lately. This isn't a Reddit DM situation (yet) lol
