Several universities in the state, including the University of West Florida, received an anonymous email on Tuesday demanding the school pay in Bitcoin or face violence on campus. Betsy Bowers, interim vice president of UWF’s finance and administration department said, the e-mails are similar to scams from five or 10 years ago where they would ask for ransom money. Tampa Bay Online reports the email demands 1.2 Bitcoins, which would amount to around $18,000 at the current Bitcoin value. The FBI is investigating.
