My buddy got a ransom demand+threat from the "Ashley Madison" Hackers demanding payment in Bitcoin..
 
My Buddy John mentioned to me that he got an email from the Ashely Madison hackers. I was laughing my ass off and said: "You are not even married!" lol

He said I just wanted to bang married women and know that they won't pursue me after we had sex.

Fair enough. lol


These hackers could not find a guy that truly doesn't give a shit more than my buddy John. But can you imagine how many people will pay and do give a shit??? Its pretty crazy if you think about it.

Unfortunately your data, including complete credit card details, was leaked in the recent hacking of Ashley Madison. Below is the glimpse of the data we have about you:

Name: JOHN A *********
Address: 123 s ********* blvd, CA 90004, US
Credit Card Type Used: VI
Credit card number: XXXX XXXX XXXX 7586
Last Payment: 68.00 on 2011-10-23 19:25:48
Your computer ip address:

Plus we have access to your complete profile data including your pics, secret fantasies, conversations, etc.

We have access to your Facebook page as well. If you would like to prevent me from sharing this dirt info with all of your friends, family members, spouse, then you need to send exactly 10 bitcoins (BTC) to the following BTC address:

Bitcoin Address:
1NfbMT1SpGfxwyaGJXjBt1VsUD7hy9pt2B

We are providing a chance to solve this case. You make a payment to the above mentioned btc address. The time ends in the next 24 hours. We will not publish your data and we will not inform your contacts.

You can get bitcoins at an exchange like Expresscoin.com, Localbitcoins.com, Clevercoin.com, Coincorner.com, Coincafe.com, Coinbase.com, Circle.com or a Bitcoin ATM machine Coinatmradar.com.

If you pay within 24 hours of receipt then we will delete your record. No payment? Then you will see what happen after this period. Once this period has expired, we can't do anything more for you. Our website is launching soon. We will surprise your family, friends and colleague with it. We will give you this one last chance.

You may be wondering why should you and what will prevent other people from doing the same, in short you now know to change your privacy settings in Facebook so no one can view your friends/family list. So go ahead and update that now (I have a copy if you dont pay).

Consider how expensive a divorce lawyer is. If you are no longer in a committed relationship then think about how this will affect your social standing amongst family and friends. What will your friends and family think about you?

JustDaveXxx 10-01-2015 01:52 PM

The 2nd email seems to be from people that bought the stolen emails. Its a gambling site.

Here is the link that I forgot to post:

https://www.betcoin.tm/?r=AxOBXcaleHpBG0dl3wlw



This will further add distrust to online porn shoppers.

If you are being extorted:

"I had an account for business honey. If you check the stats sheets you'll see I never logged into it after the first day I created it. They were getting a lot of [web traffic] and since I work in the [web traffic] industry I did some research on their [data structure] to see if there was anything we could do to enhance our own brands."

Replace the bracketed words with your occupation and send to your spouse.

Feel free to send me Bitcoin instead of sending it to the extortionists.

Is that list in one hands only? Or is it distributed widely? If so - you pay once and expect another threat. Would not pay based on that. Although not everybody is tech savvy.

I have no clue.


But I am in porn. I deal with girls on the daily. But If my girl saw emails between me and other women, I would be super fucked.


So now think of all of the people that are not in porn, and have zero reason for being on that site. People with serious shit to loose. Do you think they will pay up?? I bet out of 5 million people, there will be a lot of people paying what ever it costs to burry the fact that they did cheat, tried to cheat, etc.


Either way, these hackers will be making money out of this and people on this board who run honest discrete porn sites, may see the affects of people thinking twice when putting up their credit card and personal information on a Gay site, tranny site, IR site, etc.


I do see this affecting online porn as a whole.

I wish I could have an email threat for banging a hot married woman. Haven't been able to do that for about 15 years now. (sigh)

it s a Scandale and since this website has vip and rich members, certainly they will Pay "-)

HACKERS WHO STOLE sensitive customer information from the cheating site AshleyMadison.com appear to have made good on their threat to post the data online.

A data dump, 9.7 gigabytes in size, was posted on Tuesday to the dark web using an Onion address accessible only through the Tor browser. The files appear to include account details and log-ins for some 32 million users of the social networking site, touted as the premier site for married individuals seeking partners for affairs. Seven years worth of credit card and other payment transaction details are also part of the dump. AshleyMadison.com claimed to have nearly 40 million users at the time of the breach about a month ago, all apparently in the market for clandestine hookups.

“Ashley Madison is the most famous name in infidelity and married dating,” the site asserts on its homepage. “Have an Affair today on Ashley Madison. Thousands of cheating wives and cheating husbands signup everyday looking for an affair…. With Our affair guarantee package we guarantee you will find the perfect affair partner.”

The data released by the hackers includes names, passwords, addresses and phone numbers submitted by users of the site, though it’s unclear how many members provided legitimate details to open accounts. A sampling of the leaked data indicates that users provided random numbers and addresses to open accounts. But files containing credit card transactions likely yield real names and addresses, unless members of the site used anonymous pre-paid cards, which offer more anonymity. This data, which amounts to millions of payment transactions going back to 2008, includes names, street address, email address and amount paid, but not the full credit card numbers; instead it includes just four digits for each transaction, which may in fact be the last four digits of the credit card numbers or simply a transaction ID unique to each charge.

One analysis of email addresses found in the data dump also shows that some 15,000 are .mil. or .gov addresses. It’s not clear, however, how many of these are legitimate addresses.

The data also includes descriptions of what members were seeking. “I’m looking for someone who isn’t happy at home or just bored and looking for some excitement,” wrote one member who provided an address in Ottawa and the name and phone number of someone who works for the Customs and Immigration Union in Canada. “I love it when I’m called and told I have 15 minutes to get to someplace where I’ll be greeted at the door with a surprise—maybe lingerie, nakedness. I like to ravish and be ravished … I like lots of foreplay and stamina, fun, discretion, oral, even willingness to experiment—*smile*”


Passwords released in the data dump appear to have been hashed using the bcrypt algorithm for PHP, but Robert Graham, CEO of Erratasec, says that despite this being one of the most secure ways to store passwords, “hackers are still likely to be able to ‘crack’ many of these hashes in order to discover the account holder’s original password.” If the accounts are still online, this means hackers will be able to grab any private correspondence associated with the accounts.

It’s notable, however, that the cheating site, in using the secure hashing algorithm, surpassed many other victims of breaches we’ve seen over the years who never bothered to encrypt customer passwords.

“We’re so used to seeing cleartext and MD5 hashes,” Graham says. “It’s refreshing to see bcrypt actually being used.”

Here’s how the hackers introduced the new data dump:

KIM ZETTER
Following the intrusion last month, the hackers, who called themselves the Impact Team, demanded that Avid Life Media, owner of AshleyMadison.com and its companion site Established Men, take down the two sites. EstablishedMen.com promises to connect beautiful young women with rich sugar daddies “to fulfill their lifestyle needs.” The hackers didn’t target CougarLife, a sister site run by ALM that promises to connect older women with younger men.

“Avid Life Media has been instructed to take Ashley Madison and Established Men offline permanently in all forms, or we will release all customer records, including profiles with all the customers’ secret sexual fantasies and matching credit card transactions, real names and addresses, and employee documents and emails,” the hackers wrote in a statement following the breach.

Hack Brief: Attackers Spill User Data From Cheating Site Ashley Madison
To show they meant business, they posted sample files containing some of the stolen data, which included company financial information detailing employee salaries and documents mapping the company’s internal network.

The hackers appeared to target AshleyMadison and EstablishedMen over the questionable morals they condoned and encouraged, but they also took issue with what they considered ALM’s fraudulent business practices. Despite promising customers to delete their user data from the site for a $19 fee, the company actually retained the data on ALM’s servers, the hackers claimed. “Too bad for those men, they’re cheating dirtbags and deserve no such discretion,” the hackers wrote. “Too bad for ALM, you promised secrecy but didn’t deliver.”

Avid Life Media defiantly ignored the warnings and kept both sites online after the breach, promising customers that it had increased the security of its networks.

That wouldn’t matter for the customers whose data had already been taken. Any increased security would be too little too late for them. Now they face the greatest fallout from the breach: public embarrassment, the wrath of angry partners who may have been victims of their cheating, possible blackmail and potential fraud from anyone who may now use the personal data and bank card information exposed in the data dump.

AshleyMadison-File-Dump3Click to Open Overlay Gallery
COURTESY OF ROBERT GRAHAM
“Avid Life Media has failed to take down Ashley Madison and Established Men,” Impact Team wrote in a statement accompanying the online dump Tuesday. “We have explained the fraud, deceit, and stupidity of ALM and their members. Now everyone gets to see their data…. Keep in mind the site is a scam with thousands of fake female profiles. See ashley madison fake profile lawsuit; 90-95% of actual users are male. Chances are your man signed up on the world’s biggest affair site, but never had one. He just tried to. If that distinction matters.”

The hackers deflected responsibility for any damages or repercussions that victims of the breach and data dump may suffer.

“Find yourself in here? It was ALM that failed you and lied to you. Prosecute them and claim damages. Then move on with your life. Learn your lesson and make amends. Embarrassing now, but you’ll get over it,” they wrote.

It’s important to note that Ashley Madison’s sign-up process does not require verification of an email address to set up an account, so legitimate addresses might have been hijacked and used by some members of the site. One email in the data dump, for example, appears to belong to former UK Prime Minister (Tony Blair).


Avid Life Media condemned the release of the data.

“This event is not an act of hacktivism, it is an act of criminality. It is an illegal action against the individual members of AshleyMadison.com, as well as any freethinking people who choose to engage in fully lawful online activities,” the company said in a statement. “The criminal, or criminals, involved in this act have appointed themselves as the moral judge, juror, and executioner, seeing fit to impose a personal notion of virtue on all of society. We will not sit idly by and allow these thieves to force their personal ideology on citizens around the world.”

I guess many married people freak out and pay but i am sure you would need to pay again and again.

The data has been released to the public, so paying off just one extortionist - who probably has zero intention of actually following through - is kinda pointless.

MrBottomTooth 10-05-2015 07:13 AM

I noticed one of those emails in my gmail spam folder, but I'm pretty sure I never signed up. If I did, I certainly never paid. I haven't paid for a porn / dating site in my life. If I signed up it would be just to see what was in the site and I would have used something like "ilikebigblackbutts" as a username and definitely never put my real name or pictures in it.

I guess I should look a little closer at the emails the next time I get one to see if they actually contain any of my info. I just assumed they were random spam. Not sure what the threat is anyway since if you're on the list your information is already out there anyway.

Even if they get lucky and nail a scared, married school principal or something like that, they probably won't even know what the hell bitcoin is anyway.

Interesting that the scammers didn't bother to generate a unique receive address for each mail they sent. Shows they have zero intention of doing anything with the victim's specific information, since they cannot know who has paid them. Unless the OP's friend paid 11 times, just to be sure, hurrrr

$15k worth of BTC. Damn, it must be good to be a sociopath scammer sometimes.

You can buy bitcoins using online exchanges easily. If the bitcoin is not paid within 3 days then my system will automatically message all of your friends and family members. The bitcoin address is unique to you.
