Hi all. I finally received that dreaded Email wanting $912 or they will shut me down. It shows one of my Passwords correctly. What can I do about it?

How would they know one of his passwords?
Also, don't use free 'Open' WiFi networks without a VPN service. It's possible for MiM to extract credentials even if using encrypted browser connection.
Pablos Holman, a top hacker who gives talks on security, built a Hackerbot robot looking something like a operator-less Segway with a tablet attached. It targets Open WiFi users, rolls up along side them displaying their passwords. :B
There's a funny 1-minute interview with Pablos about his Hackerbot here.
