Hi all,

My boyfriend got this email this afternoon and I’m very worried! It had both our full names on it and it’s obviously spam but I just don’t know where they would have found information that had BOTH our names together (which I’ve blurred out).

We have reported the email as spam. We are getting married soon which is how I think there might be a connection with our names online but I haven’t even made us a website with them together so maybe the wedding websites we are using to plan are selling our info?

Is there anything I should do besides mark this as spam?

This is what the email said:

From: [email protected] You should know this

Hi A (bf’s full name),

We apologize for the intrusion, but this might be important for you.

Do you know E (my full name) ? We have information suggesting they might be cheating on you.

We have access to their phone content, social media accounts, dating profiles, cloud storage, and other relevant information.

Additionally, you can request reports on other individuals within the United States.”

What should I do?!?
