I received an email from an hacker, claiming to use drive by exploit to gain access to my computer. More worryingly he knew my password which I had changed way back in June.
I have reported this as they were demanding money in bitcoins or else pictures will be released of me pleasuring myself!!!!!
I've been busy changing passwords but find it hard to remember them all.
Do you have a safe tip for remembering passwords????

Don't worry, lots of people have had the exact same e mail. All they have is one password, which may be an old one. The rest of the guff in the message is fakery.
Ignore, delete and consider changing passwords.

Thanks Hopkirk all done.
And yes TCL the hacker revealed my password right down to the letter but it was an old password.
I've had a few of those but they always claim they know my password is Jose. It isn't of course but if they send ten thousand they might get quite a few matches from Man Utd fans (less so now of course).
