Spring has sprung here in the ol' sod and this morning I was greeted with a threatening message from the CIA. I guess they have been monitoring my computer activity and for a cool $10K in bitcoin, they can make all my questionable site visits disappear!
I thought I got rid of these scammers last month when I blocked them. Last month it was a similar request for bitcoin but from someone else. Here's the content:

Why am I contacting you ?
I read the documentation and I know you are a wealthy person who may be concerned about reputation.
I am one of several people who have access to those documents and I have enough security clearance to amend and remove your details from this case. Here is my proposition.
Transfer exactly $10,000 USD (ten thousand dollars - about 2.5 BTC) through Bitcoin network to this special bitcoin address:

You can transfer funds with online bitcoin exchanges such as Coinbase, Bitstamp or Coinmama. The deadline is March 27, 2019 (I need few days to access and edit the files).
Upon confirming your transfer I will take care of all the files linked to you and you can rest assured no one will bother you.
Please do not contact me. I will contact you and confirm only when I see the valid transfer.
Regards,
Ida Cox
