About the "Hacker who has access to your operating system" spam email campaign

What is "Hacker Who Has Access To Your Operating System"?

"Hacker Who Has Access To Your Operating System" is yet another spam email campaign that falls within the 'sextortion' category. Cyber criminals send hundreds of thousands of deceptive emails stating that they have hijacked the victim's computer and recorded a 'humiliating video'. In fact, this is merely a scam and such emails should be ignored.

"Hacker Who Has Access To Your Operating System" email scam overview

The message essentially states that cyber criminals have infected the computer with a trojan when the recipient was purportedly visiting an adult website. Criminals also state that they have used the hijacked computer's webcam and microphone to recorded a video of the recipient "pleasing himself" and have also stolen his contacts.

These claims are followed by a threat/ransom demand. These people state that they will send the recorded video (together with the video that the recipient has supposedly watched) to all of the recipient's contacts, unless a ransom of $500 is paid. Recipients are instructed to pay the ransom within 50 hours and they must use the Bitcoin cryptocurrency.

Once payment is received, the video will supposedly be permanently deleted. Be aware, however, that this is a scam. Your computer is probably virus-free and these people certainly have not recorded any video. Cyber criminals send these emails to many people hoping that some will fall for the scam.

Unfortunately, many people do, and criminals generate revenue with minimum effort. Therefore, ignore "Hacker Who Has Access To Your Operating System" and other similar emails, and certainly do not send any money.

We receive a great deal of feedback from concerned users about this type of scam email. Here are the most popular questions we receive (in this case, relating to a scam claiming to have obtained compromising videos or photos of the user):

Q: Hi pcrisk.com team, I received an email stating that my computer was hacked and they have a video of me. Now they are asking for a ransom in Bitcoins. I think this must be true because they listed my real name and password in the email. What should I do?

A: Do not worry about this email. Neither hackers nor cyber criminals have infiltrated/hacked your computer and there is no video of you watching pornography. Simply ignore the message and do not send any Bitcoins. Your email, name, and password was probably stolen from a compromised website such as  Yahoo (these website breaches are common). If you are concerned, you can check if your accounts have been compromised by visiting the haveibeenpwned website.

Sextortion spam campaign examples

There are many spam email campaigns similar to "Hacker Who Has Access To Your Operating System". The list of examples includes "You Certainly Do Not Know Me", "Looked At You For Several Months", and "So I'm The Hacker Who Broke Your Email".

Note that 'sextortion' is not the only type of spam campaign. Criminals also use this tactic to spread high-risk malware (e.g., TrickBot, Hancitor, Emotet, FormBook, etc.). They send deceptive emails that contain malicious attachments (typically, Microsoft Office documents) and messages encouraging recipients to open the attached files. Opening them results in malware infection.

How do spam campaigns infect computers?

For spam email campaigns to be successful, user interaction is required. Cyber criminals send emails containing malicious attachments and messages encouraging recipients to open them. These attachments might be presented as important documents in attempts to give the impression of legitimacy and increase the chance of tricking recipients.

In most cases, they come in format of Microsoft Office documents (e.g., Excel, Word, and other similar files), which infect computers using malicious macro commands, however, they might also be PDF documents, archive, links, and so on. In any case, these attachments are harmless, unless they are opened.

The main reasons for these computer infections are poor knowledge of the threats and careless behavior.

How to avoid installation of malware?

To prevent this situation, be very cautious when browsing the Internet and downloading/installing/updating software. Handle all email attachments with care. Files/links receipts from suspicious/unrecognizable email addresses should never be opened. Furthermore, download programs from official sources only, preferably using direct download links.

Third party downloaders/installers often include rogue apps, and thus these tools should not be used. Carefully analyze each window of the download/installation dialogs using the "Custom" or "Advanced" settings. Opt-out of all additionally-included programs and decline offers to download/install them.

Keep installed applications and operating systems up-to-date, however, use implemented functions or tools provided by the official developer only. Bear in mind that older versions of Microsoft Office are vulnerable to malware attacks.

2010 and later versions have "Protected View" mode, which prevents newly-downloaded documents from executing rogue macros and downloading/installing malicious software. Therefore, we strongly advise you to avoid using older versions of MS Word. The key to computer safety is caution.

If you have already opened malicious attachments, we recommend running a scan with Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows to automatically eliminate infiltrated malware.

Subject: Security Alert. Your accounts were hacked by a criminal group.

Hello!

I am a hacker who has access to your operating system.
I also have full access to your account.

I've been watching you for a few months now.
The fact is that you were infected with malware through an adult site that you visited.

If you are not familiar with this, I will explain.
Trojan Virus gives me full access and control over a computer or other device.
This means that I can see everything on your screen, turn on the camera and microphone, but you do not know about it.

I also have access to all your contacts and all your correspondence.

Why your antivirus did not detect malware?
Answer: My malware uses the driver, I update its signatures every 4 hours so that your antivirus is silent.

I made a video showing how you satisfy yourself in the left half of the screen, and in the right half you see the video that you watched.
With one click of the mouse, I can send this video to all your emails and contacts on social networks.
I can also post access to all your e-mail correspondence and messengers that you use.

If you want to prevent this,
transfer the amount of $500 to my bitcoin address (if you do not know how to do this, write to Google: "Buy Bitcoin").

After receiving the payment, I will delete the video and you will never hear me again.
I give you 50 hours (more than 2 days) to pay.
I have a notice reading this letter, and the timer will work when you see this letter.

I do not make any mistakes.

If I find that you have shared this message with someone else, the video will be immediately distributed.

salut!

Je suis un hacker qui a accès à votre système d'exploitation.
J'ai également un accès complet à votre compte.
Je vous surveille depuis quelques mois maintenant.
Le fait est que vous avez été infecté par un logiciel malveillant via un site pour adultes que vous avez visité.

Si vous n'êtes pas familier avec cela, je vais vous expliquer.
Trojan Virus me donne un accès et un contrôle complets sur un ordinateur ou un autre appareil.
Cela signifie que je peux tout voir sur votre écran, allumer l'appareil photo et le microphone, mais vous ne le savez pas.

J'ai également accès à tous vos contacts et à toute votre correspondance.

Pourquoi votre antivirus n'a pas détecté de malware?
Réponse: Mon malware utilise le pilote, je mets à jour ses signatures toutes les 4 heures pour que votre antivirus soit silencieux.

J'ai fait une vidéo montrant comment vous vous contentez dans la moitié gauche de l'écran, et dans la moitié droite vous voyez la vidéo que vous avez regardée.
En un clic de souris, je peux envoyer cette vidéo à tous vos emails et contacts sur les réseaux sociaux.
Je peux également publier l'accès à tous vos courriers électroniques et messagers que vous utilisez.
Mais ne vous inquiétez pas trop, nous pouvons résoudre ce problème de confidentialité. Tout ce dont nous avons besoin, c'est d'un paiement Bitcoin de £3,960.00 GBP, ce qui, à mon avis, est un juste prix compte tenu des circonstances.

L'adresse Bitcoin pour effectuer le paiement est: 17MjmyNpSeyUfC88wYtHduMLgZ4Yy34A8A

REMARQUE: N'OUBLIEZ PAS DE RECONFIRMER L'ADRESSE BITCOIN AVEC NOUS AVANT DE FAIRE LE PAIEMENT POUR ÉVITER DE FAIRE LE PAIEMENT DEUX FOIS.

Si vous ne comprenez pas le bitcoin, allez sur YouTube et recherchez «comment acheter du bitcoin» ou google pour des «bitcoins locaux», c'est assez facile à faire.

Après avoir reçu le paiement, je supprimerai la vidéo et vous n'entendrez plus jamais parler de nous.
Je vous donne 48 heures pour payer. J'ai un avis de lecture de cette lettre, et la minuterie fonctionnera lorsque vous verrez cette lettre.

Déposer une plainte quelque part n'a pas de sens car cet e-mail ne peut pas être suivi comme mon adresse bitcoin.

Si je trouve que vous avez partagé ce message avec quelqu'un d'autre, la vidéo sera immédiatement distribuée.

Répondez uniquement pour reconfirmer l'adresse Bitcoin pour le paiement ou vous avez des questions sur le paiement, puis cliquez sur répondre. N'essayez pas de me contacter car j'utilise un e-mail de victime piraté et exposé.

Uwaga dotycząca bezpieczeństwa. **** został zhakowany!

Pozdrowienia!

Kilka miesięcy temu dostałem dostęp do systemu operacyjnego na twoim urządzeniu.

Patrzyłem na ciebie od miesięcy.
Faktem jest, że zostałeś zainfekowany złośliwym oprogramowaniem podczas odwiedzania witryny dla dorosłych.

Jeśli nie jesteś z tym zaznajomiony, wyjaśnię ci to.
Wirus trojański daje mi pełny dostęp i kontrolę nad komputerem lub innym urządzeniem.
Oznacza to, że widzę wszystko na ekranie, włączam kamerę i mikrofon, ale nie wiesz o tym.

Mam również dostęp do wszystkich Twoich kontaktów.

Dlaczego Twój program antywirusowy nie wykrył złośliwego oprogramowania?
Odpowiedź: Mój trojan ma sterownik i aktualizuję jego sygnatury co cztery godziny. Dlatego twój program antywirusowy milczy.

Zrobiłem film wideo pokazujący, jak grasz ze sobą w lewej połowie ekranu, a w prawej połowie widzisz film, który oglądałeś.

Za pomocą jednego kliknięcia mogę wysłać ten film wideo do wszystkich Twoich e-maili i kontaktów w sieciach społecznościowych.

Aby temu zapobiec, przenieś 500€ na mój adres adres Bitcoin (jeśli nie wiesz jak to zrobić, napisz do Google: "Kup Bitcoin").

Adres Bitcoin: 1J4XkC8gRdNQE7MQQpWPwnvYwH1c6hdQit, bc1qwqf09f5whud09mka83ea59yrpzm20dpcwc780e, 1DdxARZgnbVvUcwFF125cM5usubeLCZnit

Po otrzymaniu płatności usunę wideo i nigdy mnie nie usłyszysz.
Dam ci dwa dni (48 godzin) na zapłatę.
Gdy zobaczysz ten e-mail, otrzymam
zawiadomienie. Czasomierz rozpoczyna się zaraz po tym.

Składanie skarg gdzieś nie ma sensu, ponieważ ten e-mail nie może być śledzony jako mój i adres Bitcoin.
Nie popełniam żadnych błędów.

Jeśli dowiem się, że udostępniłeś tę wiadomość innej osobie lub organizacji, film zostanie natychmiast rozprowadzony!

Nie próbuj się ze mną kontaktować (nie jest to możliwe, adres nadawcy jest generowany automatycznie).

Cześć!

Subject: High level of risk. Your account has been hacked. Change your password.

 

_Hello!

I am a hacker who has access to your operating system.
I also have full access to your account.

I've been watching you for a few months now.
The fact is that you were infected with malware through an adult site that you visited.

If you are not familiar with this, I will explain.
Trojan Virus gives me full access and control over a computer or other device.
This means that I can see everything on your screen, turn on the camera and microphone, but you do not know about it.

I also have access to all your contacts and all your correspondence.

Why your antivirus did not detect malware?
Answer: My malware uses the driver, I update its signatures every 4 hours so that your antivirus is silent.

I made a video showing how you masturbate on the left half of the screen, and in the right half you see the video that you watched. With one click of the mouse,
I can send this video to all your emails and contacts on social networks. I can also post access to all your e-mail correspondence and messengers that you use.

If you want to prevent this, transfer the amount of $950(USD) to my bitcoin address (if you do not know how to do this, write to Google: 'Buy Bitcoin').

My bitcoin address (BTC Wallet) is: 1FpPdHuR2kG98zr4XayziTHEwK9E3X8srP

After receiving the payment, I will delete the video and you will never hear me again.
I give you 48 hours to pay.
I have a notice reading this letter, and the timer will work when you see this letter.
Filing a complaint somewhere does not make sense because this email cannot be tracked like my bitcoin address.
I do not make any mistakes.

If I find that you have shared this message with someone else, the video will be immediately distributed.

Best regards!

Bonjour.

Je suis un hacker,et j’ai accès à votre système d’exploitation.
J’ai également un accès complet à votre compte.

Cela fait plusieurs mois que je vous observe.
Le fait est que vous avez été infecté par un malware en visitant un site pour adultes.

Si vous ne comprenez pas, je vais vous l’expliquer.
Un virus de type cheval de Troie me donne un accès complet et un contrôle intégral d’un ordinateur ou d’un autre appareil.
Cela signifie que je suis capable de surveiller votre écran, et d’allumer la caméra ou le microphone, sans que vous ne puissiez le savoir.

J’ai également accès à tous vos contacts et à toutes vos correspondances.

Pourquoi votre antivirus n’a-t-il pas détecté mon malware ?
La réponse, c’est que mon malware utilise le pilote, et je mets à jour ses signatures toutes les quatre heures afin qu’il ne soit pas détecté par votre antivirus.

J’ai enregistré une vidéo vous montrant en train de vous satisfaire du côté gauche de l’écran, tandis que la droite de l’écran montre la vidéo que vous regardiez.
Je peux envoyer cette vidéo à tous les contacts de votre boîte de courrier électronique, mais également sur vos réseaux sociaux d’un seul clic.
Je peux également accéder à vos correspondances par courrier électrique et par messageries.

Afin d’éviter d’en arriver là,
veuillez transférer un montant de  1000 $ sur mon adresse bitcoin (si vous ne savez pas comment faire, tapez : "acheter des Bitcoin" dans Google).

Après réception du paiement, je supprimerai la vidéo et vous n’entendrez plus jamais parler de moi.
Vous avez 50 heures (plus de 2 jours) pour procéder au paiement.
Une notification me sera envoyée lorsque vous lirez ce message, et le compte à rebours commencera à ce moment-là.

Porter plainte n’aura aucun résultat, car tout comme mon adresse bitcoin, cette adresse email ne peut pas être identifiée.
Je ne fais pas d’erreurs.

Si je découvre que vous avez divulgué ce message à qui que ce soit, cette vidéo sera immédiatement partagée.

Yet another example of a similar scam email:

Text presented within:

Subject: Your personal data has leaked due to suspected harmful activities.

 

Hi there!

I am a professional hacker and have successfully managed to hack your operating system.
Currently I have gained full access to your account.

In addition, I was secretly monitoring all your activities and watching you for several months.
The thing is your computer was infected with harmful spyware due to the fact that you had visited a website with porn content previously. ╭ ᑎ ╮

Let me explain to you what that entails. Thanks to Trojan viruses, I can gain complete access to your computer or any other device that you own.
It means that I can see absolutely everything in your screen and switch on the camera as well as microphone at any point of time without your permission.
In addition, I can also access and see your confidential information as well as your emails and chat messages.

You may be wondering why your antivirus cannot detect my malicious software.
Let me break it down for you: I am using harmful software that is driver-based,
which refreshes its signatures on 4-hourly basis, hence your antivirus is unable to detect it presence.

I have made a video compilation, which shows on the left side the scenes of you happily masturbating,
while on the right side it demonstrates the video you were watching at that moment..ᵔ.ᵔ

All I need is just to share this video to all email addresses and messenger contacts of people you are in communication with on your device or PC.
Furthermore, I can also make public all your emails and chat history.

I believe you would definitely want to avoid this from happening.
Here is what you need to do - transfer the Bitcoin equivalent of 850 USD to my Bitcoin account
(that is rather a simple process, which you can check out online in case if you don't know how to do that).

Below is my bitcoin account information (Bitcoin wallet): 12nEVuGNtRFMVjeVmLtD4nt2sHX68S47yH

Once the required amount is transferred to my account, I will proceed with deleting all those videos and disappear from your life once and for all.
Kindly ensure you complete the abovementioned transfer within 50 hours (2 days +).
I will receive a notification right after you open this email, hence the countdown will start.

Trust me, I am very careful, calculative and never make mistakes.
If I discover that you shared this message with others, I will straight away proceed with making your private videos public.

Good luck!

• What is Hacker Who Has Access To Your Operating System spam?
• Types of malicious emails.
• How to spot a malicious email?
• What to do if you fell for an email scam?

Types of malicious emails:

Phishing Emails

Most commonly, cybercriminals use deceptive emails to trick Internet users into giving away their sensitive private information, for example, login information for various online services, email accounts, or online banking information.

Such attacks are called phishing. In a phishing attack, cybercriminals usually send an email message with some popular service logo (for example, Microsoft, DHL, Amazon, Netflix), create urgency (wrong shipping address, expired password, etc.), and place a link which they hope their potential victims will click on.

After clicking the link presented in such email message, victims are redirected to a fake website that looks identical or extremely similar to the original one. Victims are then asked to enter their password, credit card details, or some other information that gets stolen by cybercriminals.

Emails with Malicious Attachments

Another popular attack vector is email spam with malicious attachments that infect users' computers with malware. Malicious attachments usually carry trojans that are capable of stealing passwords, banking information, and other sensitive information.

In such attacks, cybercriminals' main goal is to trick their potential victims into opening an infected email attachment. To achieve this goal, email messages usually talk about recently received invoices, faxes, or voice messages.

If a potential victim falls for the lure and opens the attachment, their computers get infected, and cybercriminals can collect a lot of sensitive information.

While it's a more complicated method to steal personal information (spam filters and antivirus programs usually detect such attempts), if successful, cybercriminals can get a much wider array of data and can collect information for a long period of time.

Sextortion Emails

This is a type of phishing. In this case, users receive an email claiming that a cybercriminal could access the webcam of the potential victim and has a video recording of one's masturbation.

To get rid of the video, victims are asked to pay a ransom (usually using Bitcoin or another cryptocurrency). Nevertheless, all of these claims are false - users who receive such emails should ignore and delete them.

How to spot a malicious email?

While cyber criminals try to make their lure emails look trustworthy, here are some things that you should look for when trying to spot a phishing email:

• Check the sender's ("from") email address: Hover your mouse over the "from" address and check if it's legitimate. For example, if you received an email from Microsoft, be sure to check if the email address is @microsoft.com and not something suspicious like @m1crosoft.com, @microsfot.com, @account-security-noreply.com, etc.
• Check for generic greetings: If the greeting in the email is "Dear user", "Dear @youremail.com", "Dear valued customer", this should raise suspiciousness. Most commonly, companies call you by your name. Lack of this information could signal a phishing attempt.
• Check the links in the email: Hover your mouse over the link presented in the email, if the link that appears seems suspicious, don't click it. For example, if you received an email from Microsoft and the link in the email shows that it will go to firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0... you shouldn't trust it. It's best not to click any links in the emails but to visit the company website that sent you the email in the first place.
• Don't blindly trust email attachments: Most commonly, legitimate companies will ask you to log in to their website and to view any documents there; if you received an email with an attachment, it's a good idea to scan it with an antivirus application. Infected email attachments are a common attack vector used by cybercriminals.

Example of a spam email:

What to do if you fell for an email scam?

• If you clicked on a link in a phishing email and entered your password - be sure to change your password as soon as possible. Usually, cybercriminals collect stolen credentials and then sell them to other groups that use them for malicious purposes. If you change your password in a timely manner, there's a chance that criminals won't have enough time to do any damage.
• If you entered your credit card information - contact your bank as soon as possible and explain the situation. There's a good chance that you will need to cancel your compromised credit card and get a new one.
• If you see any signs of identity theft - you should immediately contact the Federal Trade Commission. This institution will collect information about your situation and create a personal recovery plan.
• If you opened a malicious attachment - your computer is probably infected, you should scan it with a reputable antivirus application. For this purpose, we recommend using Combo Cleaner Antivirus for Windows.
• Help other Internet users - report phishing emails to Anti-Phishing Working Group, FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, National Fraud Information Center and U.S. Department of Justice.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why did I receive this email?

Cyber criminals distribute spam emails in mass-scale operations. Therefore, thousands of users receive identical letters.

Was my computer actually hacked and does the sender have any information?

No, neither was your device compromised, nor has the sender made any recording featuring you. All the claims made by the email are false; it is a scam.

How did cyber criminals get my email password?

It is most likely that this information was obtained through a phishing scam that you became a victim of at some point. These scams can be promoted via spam mail or online; they can be presented as fake log-in pages or registration/subscription forms. It is less likely that your email password was obtained through a data breach on your or a service provider's end.

I have sent cryptocurrency to the address presented in this email, can I get my money back?

Cryptocurrency transactions are virtually untraceable, which makes them irreversible. Hence, you will be unable to recover your funds.

I have provided my personal information when tricked by a spam email, what should I do?

If you have disclosed log-in credentials - change the passwords of all potentially exposed accounts and inform their official support without delay. And if you have revealed other private data (e.g., ID card details, credit card numbers, etc.) - immediately contact the corresponding authorities.

I have read a spam email but didn't open the attachment, is my computer infected?

No, opening/reading a spam email will not initiate any malware download/installation processes. Systems are infected when the attachments or links present in these emails are opened/clicked.

I have downloaded and opened a file attached to a spam email, is my computer infected?

If it was an executable (.exe, .run, etc.) - most likely, yes. However, you might have avoided a system infection if it was a document (.doc, .xls, .pdf, etc.). These formats may require additional actions (e.g., enabling macro commands) to start downloading/installing malware.

Will Combo Cleaner remove malware infections present in email attachments?

Yes, Combo Cleaner is capable of detecting and eliminating practically all known malware infections. It has to be stressed that sophisticated malicious programs usually hide deep within systems - therefore, performing a full system scan is paramount.
