Chegam e-mails em massa dizendo que o remetente te filmou pela webcam enquanto tu estavas num site pornô, e exigem um pagamento em bitcoin. É um blefe: não existe vídeo nenhum nem invasão. A Suíça mantém um site nacional dedicado só pra isso, o stop-sextortion.ch, e o NCSC/BACS já rastreou a variante que traz teu endereço até um vazamento de dados específico, confirmando que é blefe.

Como o golpe funciona

1. Tu recebes um e-mail dizendo que teu aparelho e a webcam foram hackeados.
2. Pra parecer crível, o e-mail pode trazer teu nome, telefone ou endereço de casa (de um vazamento de dados, não de uma invasão real).
3. Ameaçam mandar um vídeo íntimo pra todos os teus contatos.
4. Exigem uns milhares de francos em bitcoin num prazo curto.
5. Não existe vídeo nem invasão - é enviado em massa, na esperança de que alguns paguem por medo.

Sinais de alerta

• Um pedido de resgate em bitcoin por suposta filmagem da webcam.
• Dados pessoais (endereço/telefone) usados pra te assustar - vindos de vazamentos, não de uma invasão real.
• Um prazo curto e cheio de pressão.
• Nenhuma prova/vídeo de verdade é mostrada.

Como se proteger

• Não pagues e não respondas; apaga o e-mail.
• Denuncia (encaminha pra reports@stop-sextortion.ch / antiphishing.ch).
• Se aparecer uma senha tua de verdade, troca ela e ativa a verificação em dois passos.
• Cobre a webcam se isso te tranquiliza, mas entende: a alegação é blefe.

Es kommen Massen-E-Mails, die behaupten, der Absender habe Dich über die Webcam gefilmt, während Du auf einer Porno-Seite warst, und verlangen eine Zahlung in Bitcoin. Es ist ein Bluff: Es gibt kein Video und keinen Hack. Die Schweiz betreibt eine eigene nationale Website nur dafür, stop-sextortion.ch, und das NCSC/BACS hat die Variante mit Deiner Adresse bis zu einem konkreten Datenleck zurückverfolgt und bestätigt, dass es ein Bluff ist.

So funktioniert die Masche

1. Du bekommst ein E-Mail, das behauptet, Dein Gerät und die Webcam seien gehackt worden.
2. Um glaubwürdig zu wirken, kann das E-Mail Deinen Namen, Deine Telefonnummer oder Deine Wohnadresse enthalten (aus einem Datenleck, nicht aus einem echten Hack).
3. Man droht, ein intimes Video an alle Deine Kontakte zu schicken.
4. Man verlangt ein paar tausend Franken in Bitcoin innerhalb einer kurzen Frist.
5. Es gibt kein Video und keinen Hack - es wird massenhaft verschickt, in der Hoffnung, dass einige aus Angst zahlen.

Warnsignale

• Eine Lösegeldforderung in Bitcoin für angebliche Webcam-Aufnahmen.
• Persönliche Daten (Adresse/Telefon), um Dich zu erschrecken - aus Datenlecks, nicht aus einem echten Hack.
• Eine kurze Frist voller Druck.
• Es wird nie ein echter Beweis/ein echtes Video gezeigt.

So schützt du dich

• Zahl nicht und antworte nicht; lösch das E-Mail.
• Melde es (leite es an reports@stop-sextortion.ch / antiphishing.ch weiter).
• Wenn ein echtes Passwort von Dir auftaucht, ändere es und aktiviere die Zwei-Faktor-Authentifizierung.
• Deck die Webcam ab, wenn es Dich beruhigt, aber wisse: Die Behauptung ist ein Bluff.

Mass emails arrive claiming the sender filmed you through your webcam while you were on a porn site, and demand a bitcoin payment. It's a bluff: there is no video and no hack. Switzerland runs a dedicated national website just for this, stop-sextortion.ch, and NCSC/BACS traced the variant carrying your address back to a specific data leak, confirming it's a bluff.

How the scam works

1. You get an email claiming your device and webcam were hacked.
2. To seem credible, the email may carry your name, phone number or home address (from a data leak, not a real hack).
3. They threaten to send an intimate video to all your contacts.
4. They demand a few thousand francs in bitcoin within a short deadline.
5. There is no video and no hack - it's sent in bulk, hoping a few pay out of fear.

Warning signs

• A ransom demand in bitcoin over supposed webcam footage.
• Personal data (address/phone) used to scare you - from data leaks, not a real hack.
• A short, high-pressure deadline.
• No real proof/video is ever shown.

How to protect yourself

• Don't pay and don't reply; delete the email.
• Report it (forward it to reports@stop-sextortion.ch / antiphishing.ch).
• If a real password of yours shows up, change it and turn on two-factor authentication.
• Cover the webcam if it reassures you, but know: the claim is a bluff.
