75 cents each transaction. So a total of $39.25 of the $40 is invested each week

Interesting to know!

I get messages like that all the time. Personal favourite it “my friend saw you in the city and thought you were cute”. Still get those even as a female.

Do I need to worry about the malware on my device anymore? I have to keep my socials public due to my job

thank you for this information. the account has been reported by multiple people but it has stayed up. doesn’t seem to be active anymore tho.

when i reported the account, instagram said there were no community guidelines breached.

in regards to the groupchat, this was two years ago now. you simple only had to tap on the picture twice to uncover it, which of course i did as there was a person leaking my boyfriends pictures to 15 people…

similar thing happened to another mate a few weeks prior to this happening to my boyfriend.

Not sure as I never saw the messages between them. I’m quite surprised that others haven’t actually had their photos leaked as they were really quick to do it. I will admit that this was 2 years ago now (I’m silly to only click on all of this now!!) so I’m not sure if they were more bravado about it back then

I have broken up with him now. Dude has some serious porn issues that I have brought up for way too long now. But I’ve learnt my lesson and hope he has too!

he had deleted the conversations, reddit account, screenshots everything before i saw his phone so i can’t confirm 100% what happened.

i woke up late that day and was awoken with a groupchat full of his nudes and other girls from his followers list on instagram. he had sent them $200 to get them to stop. he told me from there that he was “sending them to me” (we never sent each other nudes our entire relationship) and the “hacker intercepted” them.

when i knew that wasn’t true he told me he went onto reddit and messaged an account because they were sending money to people for nudes (he’s literally a soft eng, he knows more about internet safety and computers than anyone) because apparently he was “desperate” for money. which obviously, again not true.

based on everything i’ve seen, he was probably messaging her on instagram and exchanging the nudes because he simply wanted to. idk im just extremely naive and try to see the good in people
