A few Denison community members have recently received a scam email demanding bitcoin payment from an individual claiming to have their password and pornography viewing history. Sometimes the passwords are ones that have been used by the individual in the past for services outside of Denison, made available from a third-party breach (no Denison system data has been breached).
