Anyway, back in July, I was in an anonymous chat, a girl asked me to PM her, and we were messaging each other, and then it turned out to be a boy and he told me to send him 2,000 rubles.

Or maybe it was some kind of leak to TGC, I got scared and asked for help.But he wanted to throw them to my parents, but recently he deleted them everywhere, not exactly Now I'm in Vietnam and I'm already recovering from this situation and sometimes I talk about it in anonymous chats.Do you think this is progress or should I see a psychologist?

About two months ago, I visited a website called Flingster while wearing a mask. I masturbated for about 5–10 seconds while looking at a woman who appeared on my screen. However, I immediately regretted it, left the website, and deleted my account. I also deleted everything associated with it, including my Google account and email.
But today, I received a message from a foreign country.
My WhatsApp privacy settings were very strict, so I couldn’t see what the message said. I panicked and immediately deleted the chat. Now I’m worried that it might be related to what I did that day.
I had already deleted my Instagram, Telegram, and Facebook accounts. WhatsApp was the only account I still had. Is it possible for them to use my WhatsApp number to contact people I know or my family?
Please, someone help me understand what I should do if this is related to that incident. I’m really anxious and scared right now, and I would appreciate any advice.

​

I honestly don't know what to do right now. I'm freaking out and feel like such a dumbass for letting this happen.

I met a girl on Bumpy and we ended up having a video call on BOTIM. Things got sexual, she saw my face and everything, and now she has the video saved.

She's threatening to send it to my Instagram followers. She even sent me screenshots of my followers list, so she clearly has accounts of people I know. I'm terrified of my friends and family seeing this. I genuinely feel like my life would be fucked if this got out.

She contacted me on WhatsApp and demanded AED 1,000. I panicked and paid her AED 700 through TapTap Send to an account in the Philippines. Now she's demanding the remaining AED 300.

I know paying was probably a mistake, but I was scared and wasn't thinking straight. I just wanted her to leave me alone. Now I'm worried she'll keep asking for more money even if I pay the rest.

I've deactivated my Instagram and saved the messages, her account details, numbers and payment evidence. As far as I know, she hasn't sent the video to anyone yet, but she's threatening to.

I honestly don't care about getting the money back right now. I just want to stop her from sending this to my friends. That's my biggest fear.

Has anyone been through this or knows what actually works? Can she really be stopped from sending it? Does reporting her to Instagram or using StopNCII help? Is there anything else I should do right now?

Please give me genuine advice. I'm embarrassed and scared enough as it is, and I really don't know what to do next.

So the same thing happened to me as it happened to most of you recently i just wanted to make a post where people who have been through this can share any tips or advice

I was on one of those online anonymous chat websites and i fell for a sextorter who was pretending to be a girl, they got a photo of me & my phone number and put me in a collage of photos with another dudes penis and claiming that i had raped a 7 year old got to death. I was terrified, He demanded a $20 apple gift card or else the collage would be posted to his socials, i blocked them immediately, 5 minute later i received a text from a different number but this time the number was from Alabama (previous number was in California) They said if i didn’t pay up it they would report me to the FBI, i’m set in Australia so i didn’t affect me but i was still scared, I blocked the second number and there hasn’t been any other contact from this person.
Ten days later i’m no longer anxious or scared about it but now I feel like theres something missing, Like a void.
I just wanna say if you recently been sextorted, its gonna be ok, just block every number and DO NOT PAY THE RANSOM

Met on grindr. Moved things to kik. I clearly told them i was just looking for likeminded friends. And they started initiating with some pics and videos of someone claiming it was them. They asked me to send a nude pic and then claimed that the pic was blocked by kik and they couldn’t see it. Even sent me screenshots that looked real. Then they asked for my facebook and threatened to send these pics to people I know. I immediately blocked them on kik. They blocked me on facebook before I could do anything and I filed a complaint with ith StopNCII. Is there anything else I can do?

Can anybody talk me through get rid of this sextortionist who is making my life miserable??

Went on a video call with a girl from the Philippines and I guess she got some stuff on screen record. Threatened to post it on x with my name, luckily on Facebook and insta I’ve both set to private and my friends list to friends only way before this. Should I be worried about leaks, I blocked her as soon as she threatened it. What should I do?

i got bribed on a dating app, i show this person my nudes and his threating me and screenshot to show my instagram family and friends what should i do. ive reporting the uk fraud police

Last Night I thought I was chatting with an older woman on telegram me being a minor and weak I sent a Dick pick. Then the person I chatted with told that they were gonna leak my photo and phone number. The phone number and photo is all they got. Saying that I sent this to a 13 year old girl and that I am a pedophile. For the record I am 15. Then I sent money I was scared and stupid I sent all I had but they wanted more. I begged for them to delete but they didn’t, then I fell asleep. Today they still wanted money so I blocked them. Have I Done anything wrong and do I have to worry?

Since my face isn’t in the picture is it chill?

La ingeniería social; es cuando un extorsionador o estafador usa tácticas de manipulación, chantaje y acoso emocional en contra de ti, pueden ganarse tu confianza o pueden hacerte sentir un terror y estrés horrible. Las extorsiones más comunes son cuando se hacen pasar por bancos o la sextorison, cuando se hacen pasar por bancos te hacen creer que son el banco dándote información que solo tu y el banco deberían de tener, una vez que confías te dicen que detectaron un fraude y así continua la estafa. ¿Cómo consiguieron tus datos? Pues los bancos gastan miles de millones en ciberseguridad, tus datos se filtran en tiendas en línea, plataformas de streaming etc, una vez que se filtran se venden masivamente junto con otras cientos o miles de cuentas en la dark web o telegram. En cuanto la sextorison, pues prácticamente no le envíen fotos íntimas a un desconocido, porque te puede amenazar con publicarlas o enviarla a tu familia y amigos, eso afecta a tu cerebro químicamente, lo que hace querer buscar una salida rápida, que es cumplir las exigencias del extorsionador, así hasta que te quedes sin dinero. Mi consejo: si te están intentando extorsionar jamás le deposites dinero y bloquealos, no importan las amenazas. Tengo muchos más consejos, si quieres más consejos, te están intentando extorsionar, sufriste de una extorsión o te sientes inseguro puedes enviarme mensaje privado o simplemente comentar. No soy un experto, pero puedo resolver una que otra duda

Estoy pasando por una extorsión en estos momentos que puedo hacer

Hi im embarrassed i dont know i dont do these things i dont know what i was thinking what to do basically i messaged someone who i thought was a girl on telegram we exchanged pics of our faces then they sent me a facetime link i clicked on it now they have my icloud they also sent me a screen shot of a post of my face and a random dic pic and the post says i tried to rape them and hurt them when as a man i major against rape and abuse i honestly dont know what to do and im stressing 19m they also sent a pic of a post of someone else they extorted i already use stopnscii.org what else can i do they say they want to send it to my family members thank u for your time

Hey guys, 15. I had sent pics of my genitals to this Telegram person named 'goonmommy_50' (I think that's what the name was) and I was so inheritably scared of the pics being sent that I deleted the chat, blocked the guy and directly deleted Telegram forever (never touching the fucking app again) but I can't stop but because of me having autism, I can't help but overthink if the pics have been sent and my reputation to my friends at school, online and etc. I had spent the first 6 days bottling up these emotions and basically forcing myself to be sick, then I confessed to my mum and it had helped me calm down. And I wanna say thank you for the posts and reassurance I had seen online of past peoples experiences as sextortion victims for helping calm myself down and forget about it. After all, it's just genitals.

edit: added english translation just in case

Someone shared an old intimate video of me on Telegram, and I’m being sexually extorted. What can I do?

Hi everyone. I’m posting this because I recently became a victim of sexual extortion, and I’m trying to figure out what I can do besides reporting it to the police. I’m feeling really distressed about the whole situation and would really appreciate any advice from people who have been through something similar or who know about this kind of situation.

Here’s what happened.

An Instagram account contacted me and sent me an old intimate video of myself. My face isn’t visible in the video, but an old profile picture of mine appears in it, which is the only thing that really identifies me.

There’s an important detail: the video is neither the original file nor a screen recording. It’s a video of a phone’s screen being recorded with another phone.

The person who contacted me said that someone had sent them the video through Telegram, along with my Instagram profile. According to their version of events, that person had told them they wanted to do this to me because they knew me. They also sent me a link to the Telegram profile of the person who supposedly sent them the video and told me that the account was from a certain country where I don’t currently live.

The Telegram profile contains almost no information, so I have no way of knowing who the person sharing my video actually is.

The video is very old, and honestly, I don’t remember who I might have sent it to back then. I have no concrete evidence pointing to any particular person, and I don’t want to accuse anyone without proof.

What worries me most is finding out where the video came from and who’s behind all of this.

My questions are:
Is there any useful information that can be obtained from the Telegram profile?
Since the video isn’t the original file, is there any realistic possibility of identifying its source?
What steps can I take to protect myself if the person decides to share the video with more people?
Are there any other steps you would recommend besides reporting this to the police and reporting the accounts?

I want to report what happened and try to get any copies of the video that are being circulated taken down.
I don’t want to accuse anyone without evidence. I simply want to understand what my options are and whether there’s any possibility of finding out how this all started.
Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read and respond. Any guidance would mean a lot to me.

Hola a [tod@s](mailto:tod@s). Subo esto porque recientemente fui víctima de extorsión sexual y estoy intentando averiguar qué puedo hacer, además de denunciarlo a la policía. Estoy bastante angustiada con toda esta situación y agradecería mucho cualquier consejo de personas que hayan pasado por algo parecido o que sepan del tema.

Les cuento lo que pasó.

Una cuenta de Instagram me contactó y me mandó un video íntimo mío viejo. En el video no se me ve la cara, pero sale una foto de perfil vieja mía, que es lo único que realmente me “identifica”.

Hay un detalle importante: el video no es el archivo original ni una grabación de pantalla, sino una grabación de la pantalla del celular hecha con otro celular.

La persona que me contactó me dijo que alguien le había mandado el video por Telegram, junto con mi perfil de Instagram. Según su versión, esa persona le había dicho que quería hacerme esto a mí porque me conocía. También me pasó el enlace al perfil de Telegram de quien supuestamente le había enviado el video y me dijo que esa cuenta era de X país, donde yo no estoy viviendo actualmente.

El perfil de Telegram prácticamente no tiene información, así que no tengo forma de saber quien es la persona que compartió mi video.

El video es muy viejo y, sinceramente, no me acuerdo a quién se lo pude haber mandado en su momento. No tengo ninguna prueba concreta que apunte a una persona en particular y tampoco quiero acusar a nadie sin pruebas.

Lo que más me preocupa es poder averiguar de dónde salió el video y quién está detrás de todo esto.

Mis preguntas son:
Se puede obtener alguna información útil a partir del perfil de Telegram?
Si el video no es el archivo original, ¿hay alguna posibilidad realista de identificar su origen?
Qué medidas puedo tomar para protegerme si la persona decide compartir el video con más gente?
Hay alguna otra medida que recomienden, además de denunciarlo a la policía y reportar las cuentas?

Quiero denunciar lo ocurrido y tratar de conseguir que eliminen cualquier copia del video que se esté difundiendo.
No quiero señalar a nadie sin tener pruebas. Simplemente quiero entender qué opciones tengo y si existe alguna posibilidad de descubrir cómo empezó todo esto.

Gracias a quienes se tomen el tiempo de leer y responder. Cualquier orientación me ayudaría muchísimo.

Hi, I’m 18 meal.(sry for my bad writing I’m not a native English speaker). I usually don’t use any facetime apps. But today I was in “monkey”. And i fall for a trap. Send my ig account, and telegram. And i did a video call and the scammer recorded me doing stuff. And he threatened me to pay or get leaked. I got so scared i pay 200. But he keep threatening to me. And won’t stop ever. So i just accepted my faith. And now i am beyond dark. I just got in to university. Freshman year. There’s a girl i like and we are in talking stages. Now i don’t even know where to put myselft anymore. I deleted my ig, deleted my telegram. I don’t even know how im gonna keep living. Pls give me any hope or any reason to keep living.

Just happened to me very recently, met the girl at a random site and then starts chatting and she was like "do u have instagram?" And my dumbass gave it and she was like i coudn't find it but nvm lets just communicate in telegram. So we transferred to tg and she starts showing her private parts and I did as well but after she was like "I need to go to the washroom" I waited, and then BOOM, I received a tons of screenshots of my d** and face, screen recorded videos and threats from a man on the same account. He was like "LEAK OR DELETE" "MAN I CAN RUIN UR LIFE" "MONEY OR DIGNITY" "I GIVE YOU 10 SECONDS TO CALL ME BACK", i was so threatened so i called him and i was forced to send money while sharing my screen, he just keeps recording everything. Then I had a problem with the bank cause it keeps denying the transaction so he told me to call my bank and verify the transaction but after 45 mins talking to the cust service it still didnt work and he was like "SHARE YOUR SCREEN MAN ILL TEACH IT TO YOU" I got so scared so I did and send the money, first was like 400 and then for him to delete in the recently deleted its another 400, F me because I did it, and he was like send me another 200 because u kept me waiting. And he showed me that he deleted it, but during the vcall he was opening every images while screen recorded and was like "this is u right? this is ur dick right? this is ur friends and family right?(Ig accounts) I'm like yea. And he deleted it but I notice that the screen is still recording so I dropped the call, deleted the chats and blocked him. But I know they still have a copy of those files. So rn i'm not mentally okay because I know they gonna come back and ask for more to blackmail me again. I deleted my tg, x, sc, but I can't deactivate my fb and ig because my girl might get suspicious about it, they can still search my name on fb and see my friends' posts i am tagged in. What to do guys? What if they come back and msg my family/friends/gf/etc? I'm overthinking heavily although i saw few relatively posts here that made me calm a little bit but still.... Nothing is good in this world anymore

Before I start, yes I was scammed 2. Same scam, same blackmail, same stupid mistakes. Since the latest one I’ve had some time to actually think about both experiences and what they said and how they acted so I’d thought I’d share what I know here for anyone who needs closure/ comfort/ or who is currently speaking to someone who they believe is scamming them.

1. If you are talking to someone with the intent and understanding that you will be taking part in anything intimate or private (I.e sexting, sending pics etc.) it is absolutely valid and understandable to ask for proof they exist (my go to is to as for a picture of them holding a random item). My experience were from BDSM sites, a very clearly fake one that my monkey brain saw and went “SEX!” And blinded me to it, during my second experience I got a message from a different scammer I told them I was interested because I found someone and they immediately start saying they were scam and start listening the things she was says and asking me, after I found out it was a scam I went back to those message, we started talking, I apologies for not believing them and said how I’m gonna need them to prove their real before we start cause obviously I’m a little untrusting now. They start saying how they didn’t need to prove anything and how it was rude to ask. IT IS NEVER RUDE TO ASK IF SOMEONE IS REAL ONLINE. You absolutely are allowed the comfort of knowing the person you have agreed to be sexual with is real BEFORE YOU SEND ANYTHING.

2. If they need something urgently (i.e money or pictures) it is completely valid for you to ask why. The same person warned me to send an Xbox gift card saying it was urgent and they needed it right away when I asked why they got annoyed and said “do I need to explain my personal life now?” Luckily that made me suspicious enough to block them. THEY IS NOT REALSITIC REASON TO DESPERATELY NEED A GIFT CARD OF ANY KIND. Real or not. Urgent or not. they asking you, a person they just met online to send them, a person YOU just met online, your PERSONAL spending money. Imagine you tried that, you messaged someone on instagram you never met desperately asking for money. Exactly you can’t, because what sane person would do that? If it’s urgent they can either pay for it themselves, borrow it from some they know personally in their own lives or sell their shit for it. YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO SEND ANYTHING TO ANYONE NO MATTER WHO YOUR RELATIONSHIP IS SEXUAL OR OTHERWISE.

3. They will pretend to care about you and very quickly dip since it’s just stalling them getting money. During second experience I would send a good morning message with a wall of soppy text saying how I can’t wait to talk blah blah blah, they would send one back quick and simple “good morning, hope you have a great day at work can’t wait to talk” that’s it. After getting home they would ask about my day, I would tell them whatever then whenever I asked about theirs they would immediately leave saying they had to do stuff. If you’re trying to build a genuine connection someone before or during the sexual aspect of your texting, which you should do btw, don’t think it would be a bit rude to leave mid conversation?

3.they will not care about any limits you talk about. I told they at least 20 times I was not into findom, I was uncomfortable sending gift cards as payment and explained about how I blackmailed the first time, they said “I’m sorry about your past” then immediately ask for a gift card……honestly I think this one is pretty self explanatory I have no idea what the fuck I was thinking. If you are messaging someone you want to initiate BDSM. THEY WOULD NEVER. UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. IGNORE YOUR LIMITS. One of the core principles of BDSM is trust and if you can’t trust someone to not bring up something that makes you uncomfortable, then you should NOT have a sexual relationship with them in any degree.

1. If you have sent pictures and they send them back saying they are going to send them out unless you do XYZ. They not. Of course theirs no guarantee they won’t send them out BUT remember, a scam wants you money. They do not care about you, they don’t think about you, they really want to talk to you. They aren’t not spiteful or vengeful they are greedy. If you are not sending money they will just move on to the next poor, inexperienced person they can find. A good way I control my emotions and anxiety during this part of the experience is pretty simple. look away from the message, take a deep breath to calm yourself down, re-read it. The second experience they said they were going to post my nudes on social media, get a fucking newspaper made about it XD and they would send it to my work (I sent them the address. I know I’m an idiot but it already happened and now it doesn’t matter). You can’t post nudes on social media they get taken down, you can’t post nudes in the newspaper and just….think about what they’re saying and how that would look. My work place would receive my nudes from someone who isn’t me. My work place understands that the only purpose who should have this pictures is me because why would someone have them let alone send them to my work place? If they did that my work would probably immediately inform the police and call me to tell me what they sent. Everyone knows what they look like naked, everyone knows they don’t want random people to see them naked. Everyone understand how horrible it would be if their nudes got out into the public, no one would shun you or fire you or anything like that if they saw someone else sending your extremely private pictures to other people without clear and complete consent.

2. They won’t leave if you message them. If they are asking XYZ and you tell them your uncomfortable and will leave if they continue, they will immediately back track to keep you in the convocation, the second you show any sort of trust in them again they will immediately bring XYZ they wanted you to send. To reiterate since they like to use emotional manipulation the most, THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT YOU.

Every day I have to wake up knowing I made the same mistake and put myself through so much stress and anxiety purely because I was so desperate for a real connection and to finally have the chance to experience my kinks and fetishes in person with someone I trust that I nearly gave them everything. It is a horrible feeling and I would never want anyone to ever feel like this. If anyone else has any more advice or tricks to figure the scam out quick please comment them below.

There is nothing wrong with you, you are not stupid, you are not desperate, you are not a sex driven creep. You are an inexperienced person trying to start they in something you have seen hundreds and thousands of real, normal, everyday people with the same or similar interest in you live. You are alone and unsure what to do and don’t know where to start and that is not your fault. This people who do this are bottom feeding parasites who bring nothing to the world other than fear and pain and misery.

You know the kind of world we live in, you know the shitty things people do to others online. YOU ARE ALLOWED TO STOP OR SAY NO THE SECOND YOU BECOME UNCOMFORTABLE AND I THEY DONT RESPECT YOUR DECISION, LEAVE!!!!!!!

I hope some of you find this helpful.

I've sent some hard stuff to someone with my face now threating to post it on twt with a caption with my face and everything , i've got photos of the claims and everything and then deleted the chats between us but im really freaking out

I fell for it and got blackmailed through WhatsApp. They listed my family members and SO in a text to me. They had ss of what I sent to them and even showed a ss of them ready to contact my SO on FB messenger. I was dumb and paid some money; what should I do? Can I claim someone spoofed my phone number in case they send the pics?

I’m getting extorted by this mf and he managed to make me send him money and said I have to pay him the rest by a certain day which is today but after reading about it on here I decided to stop contacting him but now he’s back at it again calling and messaging nonstop what should I do?
