how do they know your house tho thats what am wondering
They likely buy leaked data that would include things like your full name and email, perhaps an address. Even if an address isn’t there, legal data brokers often have your address for a small payment anyways. From there they likely use something like Google Street view.
ohhh
For me this would not work. I have my own domain and give out like me-authy@example.com So if the email is sent to that I wound just know who leaked my email adress. Change email and ban everything to to the old adress. I never get spam this way.
Ha! I don’t even have a house!
It’s all good.
I’ll just call it a deepfake and get on with my life.
I especially like when they tell me my address lol, as if I’m supposed to be scared into responding.
Gahhh they figured out how to use a publicly available database!
Just you wait till they figure out what the phone book is!
nice setup, by the way
Hi, can you send me copy of the video too? You have me email address.
I’m torn between asking them to put up or shut up, and maybe just not confirming they got an address that still works.
Nah. Don’t reply back.
If all else use VPN if there’s any tracking image in the email, and reply back with bogus information.
I wonder what those do with people who live in apartment buildings, lol.
It will show street view of the building or road
Pointless – you need to beep through 4 doors to get to my unit. Hell, the elevator won’t even take you to the right floor unless you can get a fob from one of my neighbours so that button will work. Stairs are locked to get ONTO a floor, so they’re only good as exit stairs without another key that only firemen get, and you can’t get in by rappelling onto my patio either, Ethan Hunt.
I also have a locked door on my house what’s your point?
Nobody wants to get into your apartment. This thread is about a digital scam. Have you been paying attention at all?
I’ve gotten a few of these, but I just moved so it only included Google maps images of my old apartment, and I guess the data scrape didn’t get my phone number, so it included language like “I bet you wouldn’t like it if I called you at 0000000000, would you?”
I’m savvy enough to laugh and delete, but I’m sure this would be very effective against some older Americans.
Authy had a data leak that resulted in partial leak of phone numbers. God an email with this weak ass opener “I could’ve called 123xxxxx567 but I didn’t”
bitch barely tried 🤣
