So a lot of people probably have gotten emails from bots saying we have your information and shit, nobody falls for it but they still do it, they ransom you BTC and shit

but this time they emailed my own mother.

but like i dont understand, they said *hello it seems your pass is XXXX* how do they know my mothers pass? And should she be potentially worried about it?

They obv ransom 2K in bitcoin

Hello! This is a common scam technique.
They search combolists that are public within forums such as cracked,etc.
Then they message the emails belonging to the combolists.
Check if your mothers info has been leaked at: 
https://haveibeenpwned.com/
You can check if her passwords and emails have been leaked on pastebin, etc.

Edit:
Just tell your mother to change her passwords and block the spam emails  Smart

But how did he knew who was his mother?
Maybe person search related to the leaked data?
@Shiina where do you live sir?

The email probably has her mothers name, etc. 
+ It might be leaked in a public database with information such as addresses, etc  [Image: FeelsStrongMan.png]

Yeah they got your mom's info from an email:pass combolist. But it doesn't mean anything.
