First you need to ensure you don't click any links sent with such mails like this. Secondly, you just need to spam this message so you won't receive them again and also unsubscribe from receiving such mails and stop exposing your mails.

This seems to be a common phishing tactic! do not fall for it, surely ignore it and report it as spam

Reporting as spam email is another option every user can do. By the way, if there is a subscribe and unsubscribe option, he can choose the unsubscribe option, so he will not get any email from the same person. Usually, users opt-in on the website to get any updates to be added as a subscriber on that site.
Yes, that's the solution in my opinion and the recommended one.

Your suggestion is recommend to all people, so we can prevent from the scammers. But that does not always guarantee because the scammers will try to find the other way. That way can be the first thing that we can do. Thank you for the tips.
Of course, this step will not guarantee that everything is safe and one should remain aware that there are quite a number of ways scammers are using just to profit from bitcoin users. Remember that your bitcoin are your responsibility to keep them safe. Bitcoin is designed with good security, only user error can cause the bitcoin balance to be lost.

Do not open the emails from unknown sources. You probably click the phishing link in your system. You learned a bitter lesson now. You must avoid clicking links in the future whatever the offer reflects in your email and always mark spam from unknown sources.

if you are not expecting coins from someone then you don't have a friend who sends you BTC. most of us have an email that had been exposed many times that's why its scraped by email marketers. ignore those emails whether they are legit or not, you will know if you have some cions on your wallet.

the title of this thread is I am being mercilessly scammed by somone from the bitcoin world, how does this email attempt had mercilessly scammed you?

I am sure that the step you are taking will only help you to stay out of your email for a while. You'll get the same email from scammer if you don't report it as spam. The main thing I took into consideration was that the user's email had been leaked and was discovered by a scammer. So even though we can still report it, the point is we will also receive other email from the scammer.

Ignoring email and not clicking on any link and reporting email as spam is a possible solution if the user still wants to use email for a long period of time. But if it's too annoying and risky then I believe that replacing new email and deleting old ones is the solution.

I just wanted to tell anyone how to protect your email from leak and scam attempt based on my experience so far.
  • Don't use your primary email to register on any website or project as they might leak it and sell it to others for scam attempt.
  • The primary email you use on the exchange that you normally use for trading should be different from the email you list on any website or project you participate in.

These two steps really help me protect my main email from spam message and email leaks to other parties. If another email is leaked or there is a scam attempt then I can still delete it easily without disturbing anything related to my fund.

It’s could be your email has been leaked somewhere in the knowledge of scammers, we all have to be careful of the email we receive and following the instructions. I never knew until my colleague at work who is the head of  our department technically team told me about a software know as mailextractor is used by these scammers to extract emails from different locations based on their target. So anyone can have your email but the only good you can do for yourself is to be careful of the emails you pay attention to especially those in the spam box.

Lol! you haven't being scammed yet bro and you say you are being mercilessly scammed, there is a difference between being actually scammed and someone sending emails that looks like scam, to me i would report to spam and unsubscribed that simple, if you don't open the link and do anything that was told in the email am sure you are okey, i see this kind of useless mails in my crypto mail most times and i just block them by reporting and unsubscribe if it is available.

The only way you can avoid them is to just stay mute and not reply to any of those emails you’re getting from them, because if you reply they will know that the email is active and they will put more focus on you. So, just avoid replying any of their mails, and report them as spams, so that they wouldn’t be disturbing your inbox, they will all go straight to your spam mail and you can click once and delete all of them.

I also get such mails, and I don’t even have their time. Sometimes it’s due to where your email have leaked online and those hackers and scammers are just sending random mails to all the mail’s they have gotten to see those that will fall victim.

Ignore them. I also always get similar messages on my email. I just matched several times them as spam messages. Now all such messages automatically move to spam. Once a month I delete them. It’s not a problem at all, if you don’t click any links inside.

You've come to know it is a pure scam approach. Then whats more to be done, just ignore such kind of e-mails. Clicking those emails could cause malware attack and hacking of funds. This isn't a merciless approach compared to different people who have been made to beg to get back the scammed funds. Here just an e-mail is received, it is upto you whether to get scammed or stay on the safer side.
Maybe the OP has listened to the news a lot and knows that fraudulent methods via email with a certain link can do something very dangerous, because this kind of trick seems like a long time ago and it's weird to not know. maybe if the OP is not active in the circle related to the internet because obviously there are a lot of news like that and social media is also clearly reporting.

I hope that you provide clearer information so that in the end everything returns to the OP whether they want to listen and not do it. because sometimes someone asks but does not do what the answer is given, in the end it is useless and there is no benefit that happens, but let what you tell may be for others and we have to be kind.

If I were you, I would delete the email without thinking about their offers because I know that is a fake offer that will only want my funds. You do not need to respond to the email, and you need to be responsible for your money if you do not want to lose your money.

I suggest you not click any link inside the email because they can get your info and use it for their benefit if you do that. I am sure there are more emails from the scammers that will try to convince you and steal your money without you realize.

It is a trick to lure you to their site and get you scammed with whatever unjustifiable sentences they'd use afterwards, just stay off their mails. You can easily unsubscribe, mute or even ignore them from henceforth. Don't pay them any attention.
The solution that you provide will not solve everything that, unsubscribing, mute or ignore will not be enough if that email account has been compromised. Check for your account if it has already been leaked online. This is a scary thing because you might be using that email for something important or personal and suddenly it is mixed with scam offers that you might accidentally click on and you might think that it is a legitimate email. I myself have multiple emails that have different functions, one is for everything not so important things but needs an email and the other one is exclusively for private matters.

Do NOT click on any links in the emails as they will probably attempt to load malware on your system!
Then tag them as spam so they go into your spam folder to eventually be deleted.

I agree.

Also don't click the link because sometimes it is a key logger, making you think that you're logging in a legit platform but you're logging instead on their platform that collects account name and password that they need to hack your account and stole your money. I don't know how they get our emails but just simply ignore them and put them into the spam section.

I even get spam emails from "google" suggesting that I need to change my password to secured my google account (which is funny, sorry for being Off-topic a little bit)

A lot of scammers are taking the opportunity to scam people online since we're all doing everything online because of the pandemic.

transactions without txid are certainly just scammer nonsense. This email is only intended to plunge you into a trap that the scammer has created. Mark e-mails like this as spam if they arrive in your regular e-mail. Usually I also receive this kind of email in the spam folder. Don't ever respond to it. Nobody will give money easily. Be a smarter user, don't be easily tempted by a gift that doesn't exist. Scammers will continue to do so and it will never stop

Moat likely a phishing mail if you're being asked to login, be wary not to enter anything as not only could your bitcoins be at risk, your overall privacy and connectivity within the internet will be on the line. Better yet, don't entertain these scammers. They only get an edge over you if you give them the chance to talk to you and win your favor over. If you don't do that it won't happen.

You are either receiving a phishing mail with aim of stealing your login credentials or a sort of mail that redirect to website build by scammers. You will see the bitcoin in the wallet but you will be asked to deposit in order to unlock it. If you fall for this, ur deposited fund is going. The scammer must have bought email niche of people trading crypto from hackers that is the reason why the mail appear as if they know you by calling your name on the mail.
