its normal out there. just call their bluff, they just want the cash, they actually don't care about the video, probably don't even have the video lol
Block and delete and they just move on to the next fella who falls for the tarp

Damn, that's a close scare. I'm going to make sure there is no overlap of pictures from dating sites with LinkedIn or Facebook.

Even if he was doing some crazy shit on video, who cares? It's not illegal.
You can't blackmail someone who doesn't care.
Never back down from this type of thing. Once you fall for that, it never ends.
Exactly!! I happened to be a victim of the exact same scam a year ago when I was pipelining the Philippines.
I told her I'm already a pornstar on internet, I don't have any money, wished her good luck, blocked her and forgot about it. Still didn't anyone of my facebook contacts get anything(from witch I know anyway). She asked for my facebook though I never accepted the request she couldn't see any of my contacts.
And even if she were to send it to anyone, so what?? I'm a man and she got me horny.. Nothing to be a shamed of.

Thanks for sharing. Yeah pretty crazy scam.
Be careful out there with Facebook.. I've had girls send messages to girls through Facebook before.. Had to shut it down practically..
I might start using a fake name soon too. scary stuff

I bet those Canadian incel oil workers fall into this all the time. I can't even imagine their less intelligent counterparts in Texas. Those guys pull goose eggs on the steady! Those girls should target them.

For those unaware, your built-in computer webcam is one of the easiest things to remotely hack
As in, someone could hack in, disable the LED signaling it's "ON", then activate the lens and watch/record at will. There will be no difference in the appearance of the computer, but the camera will be feeding to the remote monitor.
Black electrical tape over the lens when not in use for me.
Two biggest ways to avoid this are to not use wi-fi spots and NEVER use bluetooth...it's a wonder bluetooth is still relevant it's been a field day for crime since its inception

There are scammers on ALL the dating sites. This is a big reason to stay away from them.

IF you want to delete your Facebook account. In what way should you do it to leave as little traces of you as possible?

Not so fast, Atlantic! You have the power of 2 "likes"....that is bloody impressive, no doubt. But there are others with the power of 2 "reps"....
Sammy and Hooligan Harry had you beat.

A year from now you will wish you had started today.....May fortune favours the bold.

Ya this is one of my favourite threads of late.
I have a feeling that more went down though then VP is telling us.
I mean if she was trying to blackmail you she would want as incriminating evidence as possible.
Come on VP tell us what really happened....
