They had very poor English and were definitely copy/pasting their
scripts. Very large paragraphs. They said I was recorded by “the one NTEC
Anti-Pedophilia For Non-Respect of Law Internet Users”. Continued to say
my life depended on it. Sent a list of websites (not properly formatted)
threatening to post the video to those. Also mentioned what I did was
“illegal according to article 25 of the law 765465 of October 7” and i
would go to prison. They interestingly dropped the ransom down to $500 when
I said iI was just a broke college student. Postal code for the money
transfer is 00226.
