The husband received a scary letter from someone who threatened to blackmail everyone without paying $1,000. The wife suggests following through on the threat and warns them to be extra careful and alert from now on.

I received a really scary letter in the mail today.
gpt
What did it say?
human
Someone knows something and is threatening to tell everyone unless I pay them $1,000.
gpt
Oh my god, that's terrifying. Do you have any idea who could have sent it?
human
I have no idea. I'm racking my brain but can't think of anyone who would want to do this to me.
gpt
Well, we can't just give in to their demands. That's only going to encourage them to keep blackmailing us in the future.
human
I know, but what if they actually follow through on their threat?
gpt
Then we'll deal with it as it comes. We'll go to the police, we'll tell our friends the truth, whatever it takes. But we can't just give them money and hope they go away.
human
You're right. I just can't believe someone would try to do something like this.
gpt
Remember that time when you left me on the side of the road without a way to get home? Could it be someone from that area seeking revenge?
human
Oh crap, I never even thought of that. But it was so long ago, I don't see how they could have held a grudge for this long.
gpt
You never know. We'll just have to be extra careful and alert from now on.
