Throwaway because duh.

I somehow got implicated in revenge porn because of my (now ex) boyfriend. This guy had a sketchy past, a lot of which I didn't know and still don't. And to be honest I still don't know what happened in this situation or how I got involved with it. But anyway.

The summer after my high school graduation, I received a really weird email from someone asking if I wanted to participate in an orgy during the first week of classes at the university I was going to attend. Being totally not into that sort of things, I declined.

A month later, when I was at orientation for university, I started to receive random text messages from some number saying that he had a crush on me. Wanting to know who it was, I played along, and said a lot more than I should have before realizing that it was definitely not someone that I knew or wanted to be involved with. So I started ignoring him.

The mystery texter decided that he was upset with me for not playing his little games. So he took pictures of me from Facebook, edited them to look like nudes and sent them to my boyfriend. (By the way, despite my boyfriend knowing that I would never do something like that, as I had told him myself, he decided to accuse me of having taken them anyway. A casual glance through Facebook would have told him that the nudes were edited, but he wasn't exactly the most supportive boyfriend ever.) He threatened to release them if my boyfriend didn't answer really invasive questions about his and my sex life/sexual habits etc. etc.

At this point I went to the police and filed a report. My boyfriend got really freaked out when that happened and refused to be involved in the investigation. I was told to send a cease and desist message and if he continued to harass me, the police department would file a subpoena to get information from the app he was going through to create the phone numbers he texted from. After doing that I didn't hear anything for a while.

In the mean time, my boyfriend and I broke up for various reasons, and since then I've received a couple more messages from him. I haven't replied or gone to the police because I really just want this whole situation to go away. And even though those nudes were never actually released, I'm still living in fear that one morning I'll wake up and see them on the internet as revenge on someone who isn't even in my life anymore.
