Is it a scam?? I got an email saying my private data has been leaked and etc. It was from something I did not reconizged i’m like freaking the fuck out rn and they said they got into “my” search history and found “stuff” but I never did stuff. Is this a scam i sure hope so. But like they were also saying "oh you think I am joking" and also showed me were I had to pay or something??
Are you able to see who the sender of the email was? That is typically a dead giveaway
@Sillygoose27 Yeah i kinda guess it was a scam cause it didnt really look profesional
@Sillygoose27 It was from two different criminals
@🎀🧸🩷🤍 Yea I tend to get those a lot, it’s always random and funky email handles. They probably just got your email from companies selling your data which is unfortunately a common practice. I get those all the time tho! Do not worry friend
@Sillygoose27 What then i should call the cops?!!

I came across a video that was talking about a theory and it was something me and my friend were talking about 2 years ago and were tweaking about and i was explaining it to my girlfriend just now and them i started to get anxiety about stuff not being real and my world isn’t what it seems to be and that there stuff out there and then i started to have religious OCD and then it went to how Im scared of the world being fake or suffering from a mental illness like schizophrenia or something and stuff and I’ve been having OCD about my girlfriend being a government agent or that government agents are watching me cause I’m scared of schizophrenia and thinking like them i don’t think i actually think it i kinda just go to my girlfriend isn’t a government agent which scares me into thinking i was thinking she was or gonna think she is or idk if i just saying that to bot seem insane or something but like idk if i truly believe that i doubt it i don’t believe it any other time and then i started getting stress i might hurt or maybe kill her and it scares me cause shes my everything and I’m scared of losing her idk guys I’m getting stressed hella and I’m scared of myself and my OCD I’m genuinely tired of it like anyone can ask my girlfriend and she’ll say i cant go 5 mins without ticcing (from ocd) or asking for reassurance like that life is real and thats shes real and I’m real and nothings wrongs and stuff, i probably sounds crazy lmaoo maybe and the sucky thing is i don’t have a therapist or a thingy going on for me cause i don’t have a job and or insurance let alone.

i swear I’m either schizophrenic or my ocd is just THIS bad. my phone has been acting weird, like my screen turns black and then it’ll turn back on to where i was (i guess it freezes?) when that happens i immediately panic. my head tells me that my phone is acting like that because im being watched and the police will show up to my house. i had a lot of screenshots on my phone from social media, it was like outfit ideas (outfits on other people, influencers) I went through and deleted all those photos, i feel like they looked bad/suspicious.
