Emails claiming to come from the Syrian Electronic Army are in circulation. These spam messages demand a Bitcoin ransom in order to stop ISIS from killing someone in the recipient's family. "If you refuse to pay the money all the important files from your computer will be deleted," reads the threatening message. "Also, if you will go to the police after you have paid the money we will destroy you and all your family."
