Hi

I was stupid enough to exchange nudes with a "woman" on Instagram and of course it turned out to be a scam where she sent me screenshots of my followers (including my mother) and the nudes I sent, saying she would send everything if I didn't pay €2700 for her sister's breast cancer...

So of course I didn't pay anything, I immediately blocked and reported the account (which was quickly banned), but I still stress a bit even though I realize that the majority of these scams are meant to scare and they don’t actually distribute anything. Have you or anyone you know been a victim of this particular scam? Just to know how it ended for them/you?

I hope to find some very naive and stupid buddies!

    Hello.

    Have you or someone you know been a victim of this scam?

    There are a lot of posts like yours on this forum, and the answer is always the same:

    Common scam, if not trivial.

    You’ve fallen for an African scammer; don’t pay him anything and stop communicating with him. He’ll move on to another victim, he won’t publish anything, all he cares about is money. If you don’t pay, he’ll go scam someone else. Forget this misadventure and move on.

        Yes, unfortunately, too many of us fall for it.

      Good evening,

      This same question, with an added layer each time on the theme, but if I pay or do not pay, do you think it has become unbearable, if it was not always so.

      If I am naive enough to expose myself in front of "people" who, it must be said, I do not know from Adam or Eve, I must be ready to bear the consequences, whatever they may be, without then coming to whine.

      It is more than probable, as repeated 50,000 times, that the so-called nymphs only want easy money at the expense of the suckers and will not complicate their lives to collect money that "they" can more easily obtain elsewhere.

      But if they had to do so, sometimes invoking an excuse of minority of which we know nothing since nothing, by definition, attests to the quality of "the interlocutor," and which cannot formally be excluded, everyone must bear the consequences of these acts, however delusional they may be, in the virtual world as well as in the real world.

      You should consider reading what has already been said before asking this question.

      Everything has been said and repeated, so I am closing this post.
