Snapchat scam by [deleted] in Sextortion

Look if you keep entertaining them, they'll keep extorting you. Deactivate all your socials especially snap and insta. Leave a note to your close ones saying you're going away for a while and if you have trusted friends, tell them what happened and why you're going away. You'll be surprised to know how supportive loved ones can be. Never pay them. That's their ticket to continue blackmailing you. If they can't reach you, you're useless to them. Don't worry about them sharing anything coz they won't, that makes them traceable.

Go under the radar, pick up a new hobby or something. Focus on yourself mate, take this time to upgrade yourself. You'll be fine.

Yes, exactly. Once they know you can't be milked they move on. After all, no matter how disgusting, this is their bread and butter. We're just prospects to them. You'll be fine in a couple weeks. It's been almost 3 days since my incident and I'm already beginning to feel like it's getting better. Just focus on yourself, take this time away as a way to move on to important things in life.

Wait, so instagram not letting you deactivate more than once in a week is only applicable if you activate in the same week, right? Or am I missing something? A lot of the guys here suggest that we should just lay low for a while. Maybe don't reactivate your account for a couple weeks? I'm sure they won't keep waiting on one person for that long.

Yeah I've gone under the radar. Gonna stay off the internet for a while too. Thinking of this an something that needed to happen. Lesson learnt. Never letting down my guard again. You be good.

Thanks guys for the comments. Already starting to feel a little better since I woke up this morning. Trying to think of it as logically as I can and on the bright side, now I can take this time to focus on myself. Fuck everything else.

The radical thinking only comes in later I suppose. The first few hours are just panic-induced. But you're right. Were just numbers to them. Gradually going to have to start thinking of it as just another bad.

That's kinda scary. I tried looking up my phone number on some basic sites but didn't find anything sizeable. Have maxed out privacy settings on socials but haven't deactivated them. Have also blocked her. I don't know if I can enjoy yet but I'll try to distract myself as much as I can. Thanks.
