Possibly. I was throwing out a potential scenario. Though, unless this group is actually a couple of kids who learned how to mock up a website, why would you attempt to scam a company like epic like this? If they have the data, other companies have paid way more as a business decision and if they call your bluff your stuck holding your dick. Unless they are sending this same message to a bunch of companies and hoping that at least a few of them send you money. Not unlike the spam emails or text messages, twitter, tg, etc that people get claiming that someone has them on video taking care of themselves and to pay up or your entire circle of friends and family gets a copy.
Maybe epic is keeping it quiet and the 15k is just the opener, making them think they can get out of it cheap and get it then they ask for more.
Doubt it. 15k is way too low even for that. Looks more like we might have your data and it’s cheaper to pay us than investigating.
