elBenbo gets sextorted!

i.e. what computer security ex-spurts call “sextortion.”
The scam goes like this:
1. You get an email from someone saying they know your password — specifically, an old password you used 10+ years ago with Yahoo or some other big company whose data was recently hacked
2. The secks-torter says they put some virus on your computer when you visited a site they don’t name, just that it was some pourno site they say they recorded you watching
3. They also use your first name, or whatever name is before the “@“ in your email to make it sound even more menacing and urgent, plus put the old password in the subject line
4. They say they will leak the video of you watching pourno to your contacts
5. But, they will be kind enough to delete the video if you send them some bitcoin
The first time I got this, I couldn’t help but think:
“Why ask for Bitcoin?" which was dropping in value like a rock.
Then, my second thought was:
“I bet this actually works on some people…”
Turns out it does, according to the computer security ex-spurts.
In fact, this sextortion shtick is such a thing now, even the hit show Black Mirror did an episode about it. And, I hear-tell that was one of the more popular episodes. I also would not be surprised if that episode did more to “sell” anti-virus and anti-malware software than any ad or sales pitch run by these companies ever did.
And you know what?
There is an extremely powerful email method at work with this.
A method I’ve been using for years, to sell products and services in all kinds of niches and markets, and price points.
And before you even ask:
It goes beyond just “storytelling.”
There is a very unique kind of story telling method at work. A method I have never heard a single marketing or copywriting ex-spurt teach, although some do use it. And, admittedly, when I was using it, I was using it completely on accident after watching another movie (I’ll talk about soon), incidentally. But, recently I’ve been prepping to teach it in my “Email Players” newsletter, as it’s one of these selling methods that can dramatically increase your sales the first time you use it, and every time you use it after that.
Enter the upcoming November issue:
I not only teach you this method in vivid “HD” detail.
But, I show you several examples, too.
It’s a story telling method that is thousands of years old.
But, nary anyone in direct marketing uses it, much less teaches it, that I have seen.
And after you read the November issue, you’ll be able to use it whenever you want to make all kinds of sales — including to people who normally hate being sold to.
But to read it, you have to be subscribed.
And, just as important, you must be subscribed before the deadline.
(Coming up in a few days).
To get it, you must be subscribed before I send it to the printer here:
