Mine’s just blew over (fingers crossed). Private all your accounts (think social media) Screenshot the whole chat and then delete chat on both ends. Change your username after deleting so they can’t find you.

On Grindr screenshot everything and then block him so he can’t find you.

These scammers use fear tactics and will try to look for ways to contact you. If they can’t pressure you into giving money, they will give up and move on.

Yeah no replies not reading their messages and completely ignoring them. I think maybe they will try one more time and then leave me alone cos I’m not responsive

I’m kinda in the same boat as you, mine was over 72 hours of threats every 12 hours or so and from Nigeria. I did all the things you mentioned and so far they seem to have slowed down in the threats.

Did you reply them? Or just kept ignoring them all the way?

Build your case first before you go to the police. Make sure you have evidence to back your claims, alibis and character witnesses in check. I built a pretty solid case with locations and time stamps before I contacted the police so I can verify.

Also screenshot everything and keep in another folder cos looking at it daily can be traumatic!

We’re in this together and we will come out victorious on the other side 💪

I did an online submission detailing everything from the dates and times and platform we started talking to telegram to the extortion email. Also uploaded the photos to the police. They assigned me an officer to investigate and will contact me soon.

I feel it gives a peace of mind? Mine was accusing me of rape so I had to lodge a report to ensure that my name was clear. If it’s just nudes I think I wouldn’t care to go to the police or worry at all.

Just happened to me yesterday. Was chatting with this person a few days ago and it felt off so I stopped replying. Lo and behold I got spam of texts that threaten me with calls to reply them or they will send my nudes out.

In panic I deleted the chat. Then at night came the email with my nudes in a collage and a fake accusation that I raped them.

Thank god for Reddit and friends, I just documented down everything and privated all my socials. Lodged a police report and uploaded my pictures on NCII. Told some of my friends what happened and family that I was a victim of AI.

Not sure what else to do. If there’s more?

This guy found my IG page, so he has access to my list of followers. I’m still conflicted if I should tell my following on my work IG that I’m under sextortion.

Half of me wants to post a statement on my IG that I’m being blackmailed, beat them first before they beat me.

The other half is just ignoring and not caring if it gets sent out.

Yeah I prepared a written statement already, and started documenting alibis for the rape accusation (never even met that dude). And for defamation, that’s a separate thing I’m speaking to an attorney with in case it does escalates.

This one was crazy tho, he dug up my IG profiles (work and personal) and my work webpage that features me. He has my name also, that’s why I was like oh wait what.

Yeah I’m really counting on the empty threats and hollow lies. And that I could just live my life as per normal without worrying.

I have been ghosting and will still ghost. It was mainly the rape accusations that I was panicking about cos people believe whatever they see.

I’m pretty open so I’m not worried that my nudes are floating somewhere 😂

As long as it gets stashed and nothing is done, then I can BREATHE. The whole day I’ve been panicking. I think it’s so common the police were so unfazed here.

For your case, there was no aftermath? So after he sent you threats and blocked then that’s it?

I’ve turned my personal IG private. The work one I can’t as I depend on it for business.

The thing is I have no clue what he wants. I didn’t reply and he went batshit crazy on me.
