Odaily Planet Daily News: The Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) in the UK has issued a warning to alert the public to a new type of scam involving fake lawyers sending Bitcoin payment requests. According to its website update, an email from the address "joyti.henchie@attwaters.co" claims to have copied all the recipient's personal data and threatens to publish damaging videos unless Bitcoin BTC is paid. The scam email contains a link to a Bitcoin wallet and may contain malware. The email falsely uses the name "Patrice Joyce" and claims to be associated with the legitimate companies Attwaters Solicitors LLP and Attwaters Jameson Hill Solicitors. However, the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) in the UK confirmed that they do not authorize or regulate lawyers named Patrice Joyce. (Cointelegraph)
