Remote Administration Tool Sextortion Cryptocurrency Scam Email

The Remote Administration Tool (RAT) sextortion cryptocurrency email below is a fake and scam being sent by scammers attempting to frighten and trick potential victims into sending them cryptocurrency, by claiming they have infected their computers with the RAT Remote Administration Tool malware and they know their password. Therefore, recipients are asked not to follow the instructions in the fake email and should delete it. Also, the phony email was not sent from an intuit.com email account, it was spoofed, meaning, it was actually sent from another email account and made to appear as if it was sent from quickbooks@notification.intuit.com. This helps to convince potential victims into believing the fake and scam email is legitimate.
