Several people reported to have received extortion emails as a result of the #LedgeHack, containing a threat to contact "local thieves" and tell them you "hold a lot of crypto". They demand BTC or ETH as extortion.

The identical email has been sent to several people, which indicates it is a mass-bluff, likely being sent to everyone on the list whose shipping address was compromised. I haven't received one yet to verify the details.

If I received an email like this, I would ignore it. As scary as it is, it is a bluff. Still, it's a despicable tactic and very scary to receive.

You can report this to your local FBI office - it is cyber-extortion and interstate fraud (at least).

The emails are only "customized" to add each victim's particulars, but otherwise they are identical, down to the BTC and ETH addresses.

PS. They're using a Segwit address. I don't know if I should be impressed or disgusted. Mixed feelings.
