Red Security - New Sextortion Campaign Spreads Via Phishing:

A sextortion campaign has been discovered to be spreading via phishing emails. These types of campaigns typically target women, by collecting sensitive photos or other bits of risky material and seek to use them against the person.

The campaign is being spread via a mass phishing campaign. It comes in the form of a email stating that the person's computer has been compromised, and may include photos or videos of the person's traffic going through adult websites, or video captures of them in a compromising situation.

There are many ways.
