There are actually two such sins. Jesus told us what one of them is, so we can recognize it and never come close to doing it. That particular sin is blaspheming the Holy Spirit.
Jesus said:
Matt 12:31-32
"Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. 32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.
The other unforgivable sin can only be committed during the seven year period in history that the Bible calls the “Tribulation”, or the part of the Tribulation called the “Great Tribulation” The reason that this sin can only be committed then is that it involves taking the mark of the beast on the head or on the forearm, and that is the only period of time that that mark is pushed on the people. The Bible says:
Rev 14:9-11 Then a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice,"If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, 10 he himself shall also drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out full strength into the cup of His indignation. He shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. 11 And the smoke of their torment ascends forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, who worship the beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name."
The antichrist tries to force everyone to take this mark by ruling that no one can buy or sell unless they have that mark.

Blaspheming the Holy Spirit!

That question of unforgiveness is at the heart of the paradox of Christianity. If Jesus came to die for our sins so that we could be saved, then there is no such thing as an unforgivable sin. Yet, we are told that there are sins that are unforgivable. It used to be that suicide was an unforgivable sin, but the church now buries the person who commits suicide. The logic behind this is that at the last moment a person can repent vis a vis the thief on the cross who begged for forgiveness and was taken into Heaven with Jesus.

The unforgivable sin was something that people who saw Jesus' miracles could do. See, when he did a miracle it was from God. Some people said he was satan or that the miracle was from an evil source. That's the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit or unforgivable sin. I would pull out my notes and study on the Greek text on this but I think your question is not quite serious so I'm not going to bother to do that.

Heb 6:4-6
4 It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, 5 who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, 6 if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.
NIV
What do you think of this verse? Is that true blasphemy?

All sins are forgiveable with the exception of suicide. Sins are forgiven, by the grace of God, provided that person is truly sorry and repents. Because in suicide physical death occurs, then there is no time for 'repentance and amendment of life' so there is no chance of forgiveness.

A. blashpheming the Holy Spirit. This is a rejection of
God resulting from a hardened heart . It makes it impossible to see one's need of Him. If a hardened heart cannot recognise the need to repent, one cannot ask for forgiveness sincerely. And therefore, God cannot extend His grace. (Not because God is unloving, but because does not force us to love Him...Free will.)

The only unforgivable sin is rejecting God.
Only one sin can never be forgiven by God, and that is the sin of turning one's back on God and rejecting His offer of salvation in Christ.

B. Because it would be premeditated therefore evil.
The word "evil" is different from the word "sin." Sin is either the doing of wrong, or the not doing of right. Evil is premeditated sin.
