I have created a videoclip exposing the way you are playing with yourself on the left screen section, while the right section shows the porn video that you were watching at that point of time. Few clicks of my mouse would be sufficient to forward this video to all your contacts list and social media friends. You will be surprised to discover that I can even upload it to online platforms for public access.

Don't bother trying to reply my email, because it won't change anything (the sender's email address has been generated automatically and taken from internet). Don't try to complain or report me either, because all my personal information and my bitcoin address are encrypted as part of blockchain system. I have done my homework. If I discover that you have tried forwarding this email to anyone, I will right away share your kinky video to public. Let's be reasonable and don't make any stupid mistakes anymore. I have provided a clear step-by-step guide for you. All you need to do is simply follow the steps and get rid of this uncomfortable situation once and for all. Best regards and good luck.
