Interesting update from our state Police Facebook page.

"South Australians are being targeted by a new wave of scammers, prompting a warning today from police.
Over the last week SA Police have received more than a dozen reports of a blackmail spam email which threatens to further expose customers of adultery website Ashley Madison.
The international website was hacked in August with users names and personal information stolen.
An email is now circulating demanding payment from the recipient in an online currency (Bitcoin) and threatening to expose their involvement with the website.
"The email is being sent to a wide range of people – whether they were registered with the website or not," says Detective Senior Sergeant Barry Blundell, from the SA Police Electronic Crime Branch.
"We've had more than a dozen reports in the last week and believe it's just the tip of the iceberg as many more people will have simply deleted the email without advising police."
