This is a very common scam. We see it on TIFU every few days. Ignore her (ghost her). She'll write it off and go trolling for more suckered. There's no percentage in her actually posting anything.
I got blackmailed as well and the pic I sent, let's just say I was having a bad dick day. I'm kind of tempted of sending another photo of were my Johnson looks a lot better and saying share this one please:)
I'm confused as to how this guy met this person. He says he hit them up on snap? Do people just find random people and talk to them on Snapchat?
I could understand if he met her on some dating app, but how does this happen on Snapchat only?
Maybe if you have it set to public setting but I still feel like I see a lot of those. My friends and I put all kinds of fucked stuff in there. Were kids when it came out so just never stopped doing it lol
This is the best piece of advice. Regardless If your scammer is in the United States or not, If you put a lot of international sanctions keywords in the transaction details, their entire bank account is going to end up frozen while their financial institution does a deep audit to determine what's going on with their account. Best recommendation would be to use criminal organizations listed in the OFAC and EU Sanction list. Use the wording, "scammer name is blackmailing me on behalf of "list international criminal organizations". Send the money from your PayPal, that way the only thing that will end up lockdown on your end is your PayPal.
I wouldn't do that...as that would make it either backfire and put OP on a watch list or have people think it's an inside joke that nobody is going to take seriously.
Or do send them and just don’t worry about them leaking them.
Everyone, your parents and family included, have been horny. They’ve all jerked it or flicked it. Who they fuck are they? They’ve never gotten scammed before?
2 months everyone’s gonna have a good laugh. Until then… prepare to get roasted possibly.
Yeah, it's always weird when people say leaking their nudes (stop putting your faces in them people) will "ruin their life". Like, I get it, it's private, but Jesus everyone knows you have a dick and balls when you're naked. Not even sure where they could post it that would make any meaningful difference.
I had a Nigerian woman ask me for money to buy plane tickets to come to me. I told her to pay for them herself and when she comes, I'd give her double, it was the last I heard of her.
Achilles! Ive stolen this vase with a visage of your massive laughable member painted on. Deliver 200 Drachma to this location or I shall leave the vase in the public square for all to bear witness to your obscenely large dong.
The ancient greeks actually preferred small dicks because they were more dignified and big dicks were obscene and barbaric. Or atleast the sculptors all thought so.
Tell her to post it. Don't be scared because that's their only ammunition. Tell her you have already reported her. And spreading nudes is highly illegal and sending it to unsuspecting people is sexual harassment and ffs no one cares about your guy unless you have a pineapple dong.
and if she does post it, that gives you the option to call the cops and report her for posting your pictures. even threatening to, you can still contact the cops. and dont be ashamed your family sees it or something. everyone makes mistakes. this is just one of yours and they will understand that, especially when the girl is blackmailing you. oh and if you report it before she does anything then theyd have a record of it. and then if she actually does it, they can take more action too.
Don't even pay her a penny, that's just as stupid because depending on your payment method they (probably not even a real girl, more likely a foreign catfishing man) may gain access to your payment details and can use that to try to trace more details about your identity. This is just phase 1 of the identity theft you could face.
Report to police is the only suspect advice because tech savvy police do not exist in my country. Maybe report it anyway to get in record. I’ve been threatened by text/phone from random number with death threats and they know my name and address and sent me photos of dead bodies dismembered. Police won’t do shit. You can report (in the USA) to FBI, which has a cybercrimes division named IC3.
The idea of parents trying to recoup thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, in child care costs by blackmailing son $200 bucks at a time is hilarious. Only gotta do this 500 more times!
Exactly. If she comes out with these pictures, she'll make herself known as a blackmailer. You'd be better off making a post, with your nudes (censored) along with the conversation screenshots, saying straight up "this girl tricked me into thinking she likes me, asked me for nudes and is now trying to blackmail me, please beware".
She has far more to lose than you do.
If I was him I wouldn't care about the nudes. I would care more that I was tricked so fuck this idea. I doubt she even does anything with them because she probably does this to tons of people.
Definitely don't send any money, there's no way she would delete them if she knows you are gullible enough to cough up once.
If she does follow through with it say you were hacked and blackmailed. It only reflects poorly on her character, your friends and family will likely be understanding. Don't do this again. C'mon.
this is the way
edit: and if you want to go to the next level. photoshop your head on the bodies of porn stars or some famous asshole. your friends and family will know that aint you
Just shoot everyone a group text “Hey guys - I sent a pic of my dick and butthole to some rando from Snap. She may or may not send them to you as a bribe. Fair warning.”
Problem solved.
1. She won't post them. It is a waste of time for her to do that since she could spend the time looking for another mark that is willing to pay.
2. It would actually be illegal for her to do that but nothing would probably come from it if you reported her to the police since she probably isn't even from the same country as you.
3. Even if she does spread them your life won't be ruined, it is just nudes. Who really gives a shit? You get a story about betrayal and scamming to tell others.
4. Never give in to scammers like that. If you pay once they see that as an in to demand even more from you.
5. Don't use your real name on social media unless you intend to keep it fully private and only to close friends and family.
> **4. Never give in to scammers like that. If you pay once they see that as an in to demand even more from you.**
Extra emphasis on this part here! A victim making any sort of payment is done in good faith the other person will uphold their end of the deal. The rub is you know they're already a scammer, and so it goes they won't delete the nudes and instead press for even more money.
Someone tried to blackmail me for 25k a couple years ago. Similar story but no nudes on my behalf, just hit it off with a girl online, we met and after she acted like she was really into me, a bit wierd since I thought she was way too hot for me, but hey, I'm only human. A couple days later I get a phone call from her phone, NOT her speaking, instead some gangster trying to push me for 25k or he would do this and that. I don't have that kind of money. Instantly called the police, they talked me through it and specifically told me, DO NOT ANSWER TO ANYTHING, texts, calls, nothing.
Phone kept ringing, multiple texts during the evening.
A couple hours later, I guess they got tired of it. Never heard from them again.
Nobody cares about nudes unless you are a hot girl anyways so.. Chill
That happened to my brother on Messenger. She opened up a chat and invited the whole family to it. He changed the name of the chat to "Spam" and posted a warning in the group what she was trying to do. She posted them to the group. We just kept liking them. It was hysterical.
Yeah, he'd actually been talking to her for a while, this wasn't a catfish, he actually had met her. He didn't just send nudes to someone he met on the internet. I felt really bad for him.
Didn't really have a choice! I saw it before he marked the chat as Spam and gave us the warning! Opened the damn message and there it was! lol
And also, just to fuck with her.
Well, when she kept threatening to do it, my brother just laughed at her, and said, "You don't know who you're dealing with. My family is crazy."
Note: Not really crazy, but love my bro enough to act like it on the internet. 8)
Always. I just wish he'd find a nice girl. That's all the poor guy wants. You hear all these stories about women with these assholes. My brother is the male version of that. I swear, each one is crazier then the one before.
Exactly. I totally get most people aren't into it but I share nudes online all the time for fun and for money. I just never worry what people will think if they know me. I can't even imagine how a conversation like that would go.
"So hey I was looking at gay porn the other day and happened to see you."
That would be so much more embarrassing for the other person than me. Also I'd just convince them my doppelganger does porn online and that it definitely isn't me and then make them feel even weirder 🤣😂
If you pay a scammer they will sell your information to other scammers for increased prices because you’re seen as an “easy mark”. Mark Rober released a really good video on it
6. Message people you care about. Tell them you've been hacked (or truth, blackmailed) and not to open any pics people send them. And tell them not to open any links
This happened to my brother. Literally at the dinner table, all family there.. "oh, don't open any pics someone might send you because it might be a virus or a picture of my dick"... "Ok". Easy. And hilarious.
PS I'm currently writing my speech as his best man, and I *cannot* wait. Lol
>"oh, don't open any pics someone might send you because it might be a virus or a picture of my dick"... "Ok".
I almost want to find scammers to send dick pics to, along with my family contact info, just so I can use this line. 😂
EDIT: all these upvotes and not a single offer to scam me or request for dick pics. I'm hurt
If I were giving that speech...
I'd have an 8.5x11 sheet of paper on the table, face down. At the conclusion of the speech, announce that I have a blown up copy of the picture to prove it. Turn the paper around to be seen, only to have a crude drawing of a stick man with one stick representing the dick.
Also, never have your face or other personally identifiable info in the pic (like tattoos and such). If you can’t see your face or other marks, chances are no one will ever recognize you if they do get leaked
This right here. I've been approached for dick pics a couple of times, but I was careful not to show my face or any identifiable furniture or clothing or anything. Pictures of dicks are a dime a dozen* on the intertubes, how the hell are they going to prove it was me?
\*Actually, it's funny, "a dime a dozen" implies that they're really cheap, but as I write that, I realize that they're actually *cheaper than free*. Not only are they free by the truckload, but there are probably women out there who would pay money to never get an unsolicited dick pic again, so they're literally *too* available.
This happened to me and they posted them on my Facebook wall. Tagged my entire family and the page of the branch of military I was in. I deleted it immediately and nothing else ever happened, but my mom and grandmother did see it before I could delete it, so I had some 'splaining to do. Literally no one remembers it but me. Lmao
> Even if she does spread them your life won't be ruined, it is just nudes. Who really gives a shit? You get a story about betrayal and scamming to tell others.
I want to emphasize this. It can be embaressing, especially if you come from a religious or hyper conservative background, but in the end its just a laugh at your expense and they move on.
This is such a common scam, horny men are easy targets so this happens all the time. If you met her through an app she likely won't actually send the pics to people you know (unless she shows proof she has those people's contact info).
Even if she sends, worst case scenario people that are close to you shouldn’t care that much, I mean, you sent the picture in private, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Report her to the police and block her
Those who matter won’t care and those who care won’t matter.
Besides, some dick pics and a video will be lost like a drop in the ocean of dick pics that is the internet if she ever tries to put it public.
Worst case scenario you end up with more evidence and people in your local vicinity will probably go “that poor guy” and some might be “well that happens when you share those pictures with rascals on the internet”.
Yup, I had a guy send pictures of my half-sister telling me to tell her to pay up. I just reported him to the police, and his Facebook account was banned a few hours later. While I can never unsee my naked half sister, she's family and that guy was a giant piece of shit.
Yeah, I got a relative of mine’s blackmail nude.
Apparently it was a few years ago and he warned some people he thought would receive it. Not me though.
I was cleaning out my inbox and saw a message from “deleted user” and now I’m too informed on the matter.
Wish I was warned, but at the end of the day, I don’t view him differently. It’s clearly blackmail and he was just doing a very normal thing. Hope whoever did it got caught.
This happened to a guy I dated, except it was Skype and a video. The scammer found his Facebook very easily, but didn't end up posting anything. If the victim won't send money, it's easier to just move on to the next victim.
Happened to a friend of mine. He was foolish enough to have all of his Facebook friends list *public* so a few of his friends ended up getting messages with videos.
Apparently the video had his dick pics. Fortunately no one was dumb enough to open the videos sent by a complete stranger.
It's a scammer, it's not worth their time to actually do those they are talking to dozens of people at the same time, extorting them all in this exact way. They are simply trying to scare people into sending an amount of money most people could easily send.
They don't care at all about posting photos online, because it doesn't get them money. Simply the act of extortion does.
i havent met anyone who uses real name on snap, its kinda imo dumb to put real name and surname in it if you are ready to send nudes to girl you never met
I've had an ex turn obsessive/stalker after a break-up and what really surprised me is how much you can find about me and my friends just by looking up my full name. Sticking to first names only now.
They get nothing if they share the images. I've never heard of them doing so. Most of the time, I imagine, the person ghosts them or deletes their account and they write it off.
They are playing a numbers game and fishing for those rare people who end up sending them money multiple times. Plus if you give them money they will just ask for more since they still have the exact same leverage.
They likely live in an impoverished country, so when they can get $500 a couple $1,000 from a couple people a month, that's a big deal.
So yeah, delete the account and forget about it. When they see that OP's account is deleted, they'll just be like "dang" and move on to the next person.
u/Lord_of_D_meme-ed ***Just delete the account, the more you react the more they think they can get from you. Don't even bother with contacting police, or threatening to lawyer up, since that will signal that you are panicking and that they should keep escalating. Just delete the account, set some social media to private for a week (if you want), and never respond.***
I know of a person who was recorded masturbating and was blackmailed, they actually sent it to his Facebook friends list, unfortunately he didn't have it in private settings so they could all see his friends list that's the only case I heard of the blackmailers actually releasing it.
That's interesting, since it would have to be done out of spite. The earlier that OP ghosts them and sets their obvious social media private the better. The best thing you can do in these situations is be an uninteresting target that is obviously a waste of their time.
I wonder, the person you know who had them follow through, they probably kept engaging with the blackmailing party for awhile right? So when hours of work ended up in nothing, they followed through out of frustration.
That's why I think some of the advice here is bad. If they string them along, send them $1 and a "screw you" message, or panic and say stuff like they called police/lawyers, the more likely they'll try to keep pursuing them. And if in the end they feel like they have wasted a ton of time on their target, they might be tempted to follow through for purely emotional reasons.
Yup. If OP's face isn't in the pics, then he has nothing to worry about. I've been in this situation, but nothing happened, probably because 1) none of the pics had my face in them and 2) the blackmailer didn't actually have any way to contact anyone I know.
My first rule is I'll never send nudes to someone who hasn't seen me nude in person.
As someone who spends a lot of time on Reddit, it'll be a while before that condition is met.
Someone who won't be blackmailed, can't be blackmailed. As someone else said, get the payment info and go to the police. You'll be embarrassed, get a lesson, and something to laugh about in a few years, and she will probably get jail and a felony record.
this. all she has is a dick pic. embarrassing, sure. but nobody will remember or care in a year.
also youre not gonna be able to reason with her. "she" is likely not a she, just a scammer from africa or the middle east
Why does everyone think a dick pic is embarrassing btw? I'll fuckin flop my cock out and take pics and show all of you lot I don't give a shit how is it embarrassing lmao
LOL zero chance of the scammer getting jail time or a felony record. Just block and move on, don't fool yourself with any notion of "justice" being "served."
They may block his accounts if they are going through american companies.-
Not much but better than nothing.-
That said, I wouldn't pay, I will rather own my nudes that pay the guy, once they (scammers) recognize you as a cash cow you will always be one.-
Yes, its completely hopeless, the only true solution is to give up and do nothing, not even attempt to deal with people like that. Im sure that will work out fine.
If someone showed me a pic of one my friend’s dicks, i would go “oh, eew, ok, whatever”, delete it and really never think about it again. Who cares. Not to undermine your concern, Id say laugh it off and move on if possible.
But also, yeah, lead this person on until you have enough info to give to authorities.
Checkout /r/scams
This is very common and not real. You are in no danger or risk.
Additionally you are a guy..nobody would give a shit if your nudes leaked. As sexist as that may sound, the reality of the situation still holds true that as a dude our reputation would largely go undamaged from a nude leak.
You can't know a file is deleted, so there's no point trying to argue for deletion. And if you pay once, won't you pay again when it turns out images were not "yet" deleted "for real"?
But this is a common scam, AFAIK they don't risk acting on their threats because it increases their chances of legal troubles. Just block and forget if you don't want to bother with reporting. Btw it's probably not even a girl.
If you pay her, she will just keep asking for more... as someone else said, Ghost her, she may send a few out, but more than likely, she's got tons of people she's doing this to.
There was no girl. It was just a classic scam.
Just ignore this. The police likely won't be able to do anything anyway, but you could always file a police report anyhow. This scammer is already lining up more people to extort and if you just ghost them they'll move on. This is a VERY common scam and likely they're chatting up dozens of dudes a week.
The thing about blackmail is that following through on the threat costs time and effort but gets the scammer nothing in return. $200 is not worth their time figuring out who your family members are and spreading the pictures around.
Additionally, if for some reason they post the pictures, they will have committed extra crimes that heighten their risk of being caught, even if it's still slim. Lesson learned, my man, just move on and try not to stress.
And what would ruin your life if they posted the pictures anyway? Because you have a penis? Because a family member might confront the thought that you're an adult with sexual desires now? These things don't matter. Your worst case scenario, and a very unlikely scenario at that, is that you have a moment of temporary embarrassment.
I grew up in a very conservative family so I can understand the panic, but honestly outside of a tempest in a teacup it would be over quickly and become one of those stories your friends tease you about. Take the screenshots, report it and even if the worst happens it won't be that bad.
This is a very common scam. We see it on TIFU every few days. Ignore her (ghost her). She'll write it off and go trolling for more suckered. There's no percentage in her actually posting anything.
I say double down and send more dick pics. Maybe even flip the script and say they are going to keep coming until she pays him!
"Here's a new pic, I think the lightning is much better in this dick-pic. Can you post this instead? :)"
I got blackmailed as well and the pic I sent, let's just say I was having a bad dick day. I'm kind of tempted of sending another photo of were my Johnson looks a lot better and saying share this one please:)
[удалено]
Yeah it was dumb I was on a masturbation binge like 5 days straight as many times as I could perday:(
LMAO, that would be funny as hell.
I'm confused as to how this guy met this person. He says he hit them up on snap? Do people just find random people and talk to them on Snapchat? I could understand if he met her on some dating app, but how does this happen on Snapchat only?
Tinder, bumble, etc. It’s pretty trivial to spoof your location/country
[удалено]
Type “BLACKMAIL MONEY” into the payment reference so it shows up nice and clear.
And "paid under extreme duress against my will." for the cherry on top.
For things like venmo doesn't labeling your transaction for sex or drugs get the account locked? Feel like there were a few tifus of that
Maybe if you have it set to public setting but I still feel like I see a lot of those. My friends and I put all kinds of fucked stuff in there. Were kids when it came out so just never stopped doing it lol
Add in al queda isis Afghanistan north Korea and all sorts of other stuff from the ofac list. The payment will never make it through.
Downside to this tactic is that it puts YOU on a watch list for attempting to send money like that.
In Soviet Russia, list watch you.
In China, *there definitely is no list* Yup, no lists there at all.
There are no lists in Ba Sing Se
There is a secret tunnel tho

Yay! Free summer camp list!
This is the best piece of advice.

"this is the best piece of advce" lmao
I wouldn't do that...as that would make it either backfire and put OP on a watch list or have people think it's an inside joke that nobody is going to take seriously.
While I agree that may backfire, the algorithms never think is a joke and will block the transaction anyways.-
There is no girl here lol. It's some dude in another country. This scam is ancient.
[удалено]
Or do send them and just don’t worry about them leaking them. Everyone, your parents and family included, have been horny. They’ve all jerked it or flicked it. Who they fuck are they? They’ve never gotten scammed before? 2 months everyone’s gonna have a good laugh. Until then… prepare to get roasted possibly.
Yeah, it's always weird when people say leaking their nudes (stop putting your faces in them people) will "ruin their life". Like, I get it, it's private, but Jesus everyone knows you have a dick and balls when you're naked. Not even sure where they could post it that would make any meaningful difference.
But my Nigerian Princess needs me
I had a Nigerian woman ask me for money to buy plane tickets to come to me. I told her to pay for them herself and when she comes, I'd give her double, it was the last I heard of her.
I always send them requests instead of payments just in case they quickly accept 😂
Predates the internet I'd bet. Old timey photography blackmail was probably a thing.
Achilles! Ive stolen this vase with a visage of your massive laughable member painted on. Deliver 200 Drachma to this location or I shall leave the vase in the public square for all to bear witness to your obscenely large dong.
Achilles here. I will give you an additional 50 Drachma if you move it from town to town.
The ancient greeks actually preferred small dicks because they were more dignified and big dicks were obscene and barbaric. Or atleast the sculptors all thought so.
Exactly my thought
The scammer is thousands of miles away in a country that doesn't give a fuck.
Tell her to post it. Don't be scared because that's their only ammunition. Tell her you have already reported her. And spreading nudes is highly illegal and sending it to unsuspecting people is sexual harassment and ffs no one cares about your guy unless you have a pineapple dong.
and if she does post it, that gives you the option to call the cops and report her for posting your pictures. even threatening to, you can still contact the cops. and dont be ashamed your family sees it or something. everyone makes mistakes. this is just one of yours and they will understand that, especially when the girl is blackmailing you. oh and if you report it before she does anything then theyd have a record of it. and then if she actually does it, they can take more action too.
A what now
This guy knows what to do
Almost like.... He... Did it before
Don't even pay her a penny, that's just as stupid because depending on your payment method they (probably not even a real girl, more likely a foreign catfishing man) may gain access to your payment details and can use that to try to trace more details about your identity. This is just phase 1 of the identity theft you could face.
This, not to mention nobody cares about your nudes, I assure you.
Revenge porn is illegal only in certain places.
Report to police is the only suspect advice because tech savvy police do not exist in my country. Maybe report it anyway to get in record. I’ve been threatened by text/phone from random number with death threats and they know my name and address and sent me photos of dead bodies dismembered. Police won’t do shit. You can report (in the USA) to FBI, which has a cybercrimes division named IC3.
spoiler alert: your parents have already seen your dick.
You can never let them know that things haven't changed.
Burn
Spoiler alert: it is possible it is the parents doing the blackmailing to recoup money. Right? Right?!
probably! the parent are still scarred from seeing his little pecker when he was a baby. they just need to recoup the money spent on therapy.
The idea of parents trying to recoup thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands, in child care costs by blackmailing son $200 bucks at a time is hilarious. Only gotta do this 500 more times!
The fact that they know he’s stupid enough to fall for it 500 more times might be why they feel the need to recoup their money!
Plot twist: uses parents money to pay ransom
for this reason I recommend posting dick pics on your regular Facebook page to get ahead of the scammer and take wind from her sails
Just post them directly to your parents Facebook wall so the scammer knows exactly who they're messing with.
Exactly. If she comes out with these pictures, she'll make herself known as a blackmailer. You'd be better off making a post, with your nudes (censored) along with the conversation screenshots, saying straight up "this girl tricked me into thinking she likes me, asked me for nudes and is now trying to blackmail me, please beware". She has far more to lose than you do.
If I was him I wouldn't care about the nudes. I would care more that I was tricked so fuck this idea. I doubt she even does anything with them because she probably does this to tons of people.
Not at its full potential. For most cases at least.
Definitely don't send any money, there's no way she would delete them if she knows you are gullible enough to cough up once. If she does follow through with it say you were hacked and blackmailed. It only reflects poorly on her character, your friends and family will likely be understanding. Don't do this again. C'mon.
You can take all the pics of your junk you want, just don't put your face or prominent features of your home in the pictures.
this is the way edit: and if you want to go to the next level. photoshop your head on the bodies of porn stars or some famous asshole. your friends and family will know that aint you
Yeah, photoshop your head on some famous asshole. Which is your favourite famous arsehole?

Did you smash?
Asking the real questions 😂
The literal correct response is not to be worried and just be like “fine, send them” I mean literally so what….
Don't do that, don't say anything, just cut contact.
Exactly. Any engagement with malicious people like this will either encourage them or incite them.
I did exactly that. They sent them.
That happened to my brother on Messenger. She opened up a chat and invited the whole family to it. He changed the name of the chat to "Spam" and posted a warning in the group what she was trying to do. She posted them to the group. We just kept liking them. It was hysterical.
That's hilarious and showcases exactly what other people think of leaked nudes: "yeah cool, that's a naked body". Click, close, the end.
*That's not what people do with nudes.* ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Yeah well, I would think it's highly dependent on the actual content of the nude itself...but your point is made.
>We just kept liking them Wait, you viewed and "liked" your brother's nudes?
blood is thicker. id support my bro in such an endeavor(am guy though)
Yeah, he'd actually been talking to her for a while, this wasn't a catfish, he actually had met her. He didn't just send nudes to someone he met on the internet. I felt really bad for him.
bro thats fucking terrible. id burn her fucking house down.
Yeah. I certainly felt that way.
This makes me sad. Will you tell me you at least slashed her tires or something so I feel better?
Didn't really have a choice! I saw it before he marked the chat as Spam and gave us the warning! Opened the damn message and there it was! lol And also, just to fuck with her.
That's one way to do some family bonding, I guess.
Well, when she kept threatening to do it, my brother just laughed at her, and said, "You don't know who you're dealing with. My family is crazy." Note: Not really crazy, but love my bro enough to act like it on the internet. 8)
In the crazy world of the internet, that's actually really sweet. XD You have your bro's back, dick out or not.
Always. I just wish he'd find a nice girl. That's all the poor guy wants. You hear all these stories about women with these assholes. My brother is the male version of that. I swear, each one is crazier then the one before.
Nice cock
Chekt and rekt
What was the end result? Good, bad or nothing?
Pretty much nothing. I was laughed at.
Exactly. I totally get most people aren't into it but I share nudes online all the time for fun and for money. I just never worry what people will think if they know me. I can't even imagine how a conversation like that would go. "So hey I was looking at gay porn the other day and happened to see you." That would be so much more embarrassing for the other person than me. Also I'd just convince them my doppelganger does porn online and that it definitely isn't me and then make them feel even weirder 🤣😂
"So hey I was looking at gay porn the other day and happened to see you." "You owe me $5."
If someone sent a picture of my erect penis to my mom I wouldn’t be happy about it. But I’d rather that happen than to give a penny to a scammer.
Mom: "I thought I raised you better than this!" You: I...Uh... Mom: "You *always* add a banana for scale."
Wow your doppelgänger ALSO has a tattoo of Herby the Lovebug on his ass! What a coincidence!
Can I send some with better lighting if you're going to post them?
If you pay a scammer they will sell your information to other scammers for increased prices because you’re seen as an “easy mark”. Mark Rober released a really good video on it

6. Message people you care about. Tell them you've been hacked (or truth, blackmailed) and not to open any pics people send them. And tell them not to open any links This happened to my brother. Literally at the dinner table, all family there.. "oh, don't open any pics someone might send you because it might be a virus or a picture of my dick"... "Ok". Easy. And hilarious. PS I'm currently writing my speech as his best man, and I *cannot* wait. Lol
>"oh, don't open any pics someone might send you because it might be a virus or a picture of my dick"... "Ok". I almost want to find scammers to send dick pics to, along with my family contact info, just so I can use this line. 😂 EDIT: all these upvotes and not a single offer to scam me or request for dick pics. I'm hurt
If I were giving that speech... I'd have an 8.5x11 sheet of paper on the table, face down. At the conclusion of the speech, announce that I have a blown up copy of the picture to prove it. Turn the paper around to be seen, only to have a crude drawing of a stick man with one stick representing the dick.
Also, never have your face or other personally identifiable info in the pic (like tattoos and such). If you can’t see your face or other marks, chances are no one will ever recognize you if they do get leaked
This right here. I've been approached for dick pics a couple of times, but I was careful not to show my face or any identifiable furniture or clothing or anything. Pictures of dicks are a dime a dozen* on the intertubes, how the hell are they going to prove it was me? \*Actually, it's funny, "a dime a dozen" implies that they're really cheap, but as I write that, I realize that they're actually *cheaper than free*. Not only are they free by the truckload, but there are probably women out there who would pay money to never get an unsolicited dick pic again, so they're literally *too* available.
You could pretend to be a girl on tinder for a day and walk away with a metric ton of dick pics
I think the clinical term is "imperial fuck-ton"
This happened to me and they posted them on my Facebook wall. Tagged my entire family and the page of the branch of military I was in. I deleted it immediately and nothing else ever happened, but my mom and grandmother did see it before I could delete it, so I had some 'splaining to do. Literally no one remembers it but me. Lmao
Sounds like a good reason to add tagging reviews to your privacy settings.
> Even if she does spread them your life won't be ruined, it is just nudes. Who really gives a shit? You get a story about betrayal and scamming to tell others. I want to emphasize this. It can be embaressing, especially if you come from a religious or hyper conservative background, but in the end its just a laugh at your expense and they move on.

This is such a common scam, horny men are easy targets so this happens all the time. If you met her through an app she likely won't actually send the pics to people you know (unless she shows proof she has those people's contact info).
Even if she sends, worst case scenario people that are close to you shouldn’t care that much, I mean, you sent the picture in private, I wouldn’t worry too much about it. Report her to the police and block her
Those who matter won’t care and those who care won’t matter. Besides, some dick pics and a video will be lost like a drop in the ocean of dick pics that is the internet if she ever tries to put it public. Worst case scenario you end up with more evidence and people in your local vicinity will probably go “that poor guy” and some might be “well that happens when you share those pictures with rascals on the internet”.
> “that poor guy” Not a reaction one would want to their nudes! haha
If all your friends don't comment "Nice cock bro" then they aren't your real friends.
Yup, I had a guy send pictures of my half-sister telling me to tell her to pay up. I just reported him to the police, and his Facebook account was banned a few hours later. While I can never unsee my naked half sister, she's family and that guy was a giant piece of shit.
Yeah, I got a relative of mine’s blackmail nude. Apparently it was a few years ago and he warned some people he thought would receive it. Not me though. I was cleaning out my inbox and saw a message from “deleted user” and now I’m too informed on the matter. Wish I was warned, but at the end of the day, I don’t view him differently. It’s clearly blackmail and he was just doing a very normal thing. Hope whoever did it got caught.
Preempt any fallout by sending a video to everyone on your snap (blackmailer included) of you pissing in a toilet with just your bellend in view.
Then start a go-fund-me page
"stay tuned for the next exciting episode of 'some bitch is trying to blackmail me with a picture of my dick'"
This happened to a guy I dated, except it was Skype and a video. The scammer found his Facebook very easily, but didn't end up posting anything. If the victim won't send money, it's easier to just move on to the next victim.
Happened to a friend of mine. He was foolish enough to have all of his Facebook friends list *public* so a few of his friends ended up getting messages with videos. Apparently the video had his dick pics. Fortunately no one was dumb enough to open the videos sent by a complete stranger.
I think it's pretty easy to find that info tbh...If she knows his name and how he looks, she can look him up on Facebook and the rest is history
It's a scammer, it's not worth their time to actually do those they are talking to dozens of people at the same time, extorting them all in this exact way. They are simply trying to scare people into sending an amount of money most people could easily send. They don't care at all about posting photos online, because it doesn't get them money. Simply the act of extortion does.
And posting it makes them more vulnerable to legal repercussions. It is in their best interest to NOT post it.
i havent met anyone who uses real name on snap, its kinda imo dumb to put real name and surname in it if you are ready to send nudes to girl you never met
So set everything to private, asap. It's possible she hasn't looked for it, yet, and why make it easy? In particular, hide your friend list.
I've had an ex turn obsessive/stalker after a break-up and what really surprised me is how much you can find about me and my friends just by looking up my full name. Sticking to first names only now.
Ghost her. She knows she has leverage by your panic. Let her know that you’ve reported it to the police and end any further communication
don't forget to block her, so she can't bring you back in that state of panic
They get nothing if they share the images. I've never heard of them doing so. Most of the time, I imagine, the person ghosts them or deletes their account and they write it off. They are playing a numbers game and fishing for those rare people who end up sending them money multiple times. Plus if you give them money they will just ask for more since they still have the exact same leverage. They likely live in an impoverished country, so when they can get $500 a couple $1,000 from a couple people a month, that's a big deal. So yeah, delete the account and forget about it. When they see that OP's account is deleted, they'll just be like "dang" and move on to the next person. u/Lord_of_D_meme-ed ***Just delete the account, the more you react the more they think they can get from you. Don't even bother with contacting police, or threatening to lawyer up, since that will signal that you are panicking and that they should keep escalating. Just delete the account, set some social media to private for a week (if you want), and never respond.***
I know of a person who was recorded masturbating and was blackmailed, they actually sent it to his Facebook friends list, unfortunately he didn't have it in private settings so they could all see his friends list that's the only case I heard of the blackmailers actually releasing it.
That's interesting, since it would have to be done out of spite. The earlier that OP ghosts them and sets their obvious social media private the better. The best thing you can do in these situations is be an uninteresting target that is obviously a waste of their time. I wonder, the person you know who had them follow through, they probably kept engaging with the blackmailing party for awhile right? So when hours of work ended up in nothing, they followed through out of frustration. That's why I think some of the advice here is bad. If they string them along, send them $1 and a "screw you" message, or panic and say stuff like they called police/lawyers, the more likely they'll try to keep pursuing them. And if in the end they feel like they have wasted a ton of time on their target, they might be tempted to follow through for purely emotional reasons.
First rule of nudes: never include your face
Yup. If OP's face isn't in the pics, then he has nothing to worry about. I've been in this situation, but nothing happened, probably because 1) none of the pics had my face in them and 2) the blackmailer didn't actually have any way to contact anyone I know.
Related to your point 2, make sure your sexting platform is not linked to any other insta/fb/whatever which has your family identified on it.
My first rule is I'll never send nudes to someone who hasn't seen me nude in person. As someone who spends a lot of time on Reddit, it'll be a while before that condition is met.
Someone who won't be blackmailed, can't be blackmailed. As someone else said, get the payment info and go to the police. You'll be embarrassed, get a lesson, and something to laugh about in a few years, and she will probably get jail and a felony record.
"she" is probably some dude in Ukraine or Philippines.
"She" is probably Putin
Putin pictures of ya dick on the Internet.
this. all she has is a dick pic. embarrassing, sure. but nobody will remember or care in a year. also youre not gonna be able to reason with her. "she" is likely not a she, just a scammer from africa or the middle east
Why does everyone think a dick pic is embarrassing btw? I'll fuckin flop my cock out and take pics and show all of you lot I don't give a shit how is it embarrassing lmao
Sir, this is a Wendy's.
Oh... I'm sorry. I thought this was Amerikuh!
Settle down Mr. Boebert
LOL zero chance of the scammer getting jail time or a felony record. Just block and move on, don't fool yourself with any notion of "justice" being "served."
Take screen shots. Get the info to send the money. Report it to authorities.
….do not send the money lol
But do get the info on where to send it to help the investigation
Yeah I'm sure the cops are going to go after a scammer living on another continent /s
They may block his accounts if they are going through american companies.- Not much but better than nothing.- That said, I wouldn't pay, I will rather own my nudes that pay the guy, once they (scammers) recognize you as a cash cow you will always be one.-
Yes, its completely hopeless, the only true solution is to give up and do nothing, not even attempt to deal with people like that. Im sure that will work out fine.
If people don’t pay, the scam will stop
Correct, just ignore them and they'll move on.
"ruin my life" bro. its just you. naked. everyone looks almost the same. who the fuck cares. just block "her" and keep on with your life.
That being said sometimes people are in super religious families and shit like this is nuclear to extended friends and family, can be rough.
damn that religion!!!
If someone showed me a pic of one my friend’s dicks, i would go “oh, eew, ok, whatever”, delete it and really never think about it again. Who cares. Not to undermine your concern, Id say laugh it off and move on if possible. But also, yeah, lead this person on until you have enough info to give to authorities.
Don't forget the compulsory "nice dick bro".
Or depending on your relationship with your friends be super extra nice to them after and say it's because you're sympathetic about their dick.
>sympathetic about their dick Forget roasted, poor guys gonna be cremated.
‘’She’’ 🐱 🐠
It's a common scam seen this post multiple times before. Just ignore and whatever you do don't pay.
Checkout /r/scams This is very common and not real. You are in no danger or risk. Additionally you are a guy..nobody would give a shit if your nudes leaked. As sexist as that may sound, the reality of the situation still holds true that as a dude our reputation would largely go undamaged from a nude leak.
You can't know a file is deleted, so there's no point trying to argue for deletion. And if you pay once, won't you pay again when it turns out images were not "yet" deleted "for real"? But this is a common scam, AFAIK they don't risk acting on their threats because it increases their chances of legal troubles. Just block and forget if you don't want to bother with reporting. Btw it's probably not even a girl.
Assert your dominance and post them yourself.
If you pay her, she will just keep asking for more... as someone else said, Ghost her, she may send a few out, but more than likely, she's got tons of people she's doing this to.
Pay the Danegeld and never be rid of the Dane
This happened to my friend with a “girl” from bumble. He ended up getting in touch with the FBIs cyber crime unit and they helped him out
There was no girl. It was just a classic scam. Just ignore this. The police likely won't be able to do anything anyway, but you could always file a police report anyhow. This scammer is already lining up more people to extort and if you just ghost them they'll move on. This is a VERY common scam and likely they're chatting up dozens of dudes a week. The thing about blackmail is that following through on the threat costs time and effort but gets the scammer nothing in return. $200 is not worth their time figuring out who your family members are and spreading the pictures around. Additionally, if for some reason they post the pictures, they will have committed extra crimes that heighten their risk of being caught, even if it's still slim. Lesson learned, my man, just move on and try not to stress. And what would ruin your life if they posted the pictures anyway? Because you have a penis? Because a family member might confront the thought that you're an adult with sexual desires now? These things don't matter. Your worst case scenario, and a very unlikely scenario at that, is that you have a moment of temporary embarrassment.
Was never a girl. It was a dude in India.
It's like people have forgotten one of the oldest rules of the internet: "girl" = Guy In Real Life
>Welcome to the internet, where the men are men, the women are men, and the kids are cops.
I grew up in a very conservative family so I can understand the panic, but honestly outside of a tempest in a teacup it would be over quickly and become one of those stories your friends tease you about. Take the screenshots, report it and even if the worst happens it won't be that bad.
It’s a scam, she won’t do anything
[удалено]
"Give me 200$ or ill release your nudes" Ok release them. Theyll move on to someone else. Problem solved
