I have been scammed, send nudes only genitals no face. Scammer threatened to leak them to my familie and cops and so on. I blocked them deleted the chat but took some screenshot. They had my phone number and profile Pic from what’s app. Should I be worried or is this a false threat???
It’s fake. You’re fine
Thx
Are you in a country where revenge porn is illegal?
Most likely a false threat. Don’t pay them anything.
its a common scam lol, relax. If you’re worried about it tell them you’ve called the police and reported them for revenge porn.
How will people know the penis in the photo is yours lol. Imagine you get a text from an anonymous phone number with a picture of a penis saying this is so and so’s penis. like … ok ?
Thx, they got me scared a bit.
Yeah
Never pay. And never use your regular phone number or email address, create alternative ones. This is the smart thing to do even with a regular dating site.
Best you can do is disengage. Those types are usually playing a numbers game, so actually following through on their threats would just cost them time they could be using to scam someone else with no payoff.
And what did we learn?
Thx, don’t send nudes to strangers they may threat you
Check out r/sextortion. Very good info.
They only want the money, they don’t care about you. If you give them money, they’ll be encouraged to continue to do this to young men, and crimes like this are on the rise. Learn from this not to send nudes. And report this to the police.
It’s a well known scam. They can send whatever they want to whomever they want, but it’s all bullshit. At absolute worst you’ll have three weird days with anyone who got “the leaks”. Even so, you were smart enough to not show your face so they could be random dick pics from Google for all the “receiver” knows.
You can easily google this scan and see how some people got so wrapped up in the scam that they did many stupid and horrible things out of fear.
Do not be scared. Do not let them freak you out. At best they have photos of random genitals that you could easily deny your involvement. Block, delete, move on. Most scammers, once the victim stops responding, realize they have a dead end and no money to extort. If you paid them, stop. If they ask for money never give it and they’ll leave you alone fast.
Once you give them money they’ll never leave you alone. The game is to ignore.
I got a mail once, they said they recorded me jerking off and will release all of that if I dont pay 10 k $.
I wrote this:
Release it, I love showing my chonson to the world. At least I can then make the case it wasn’t intentional and Im the victim.
Never heard from them again, those fuckers.
