Kik Scam Please Help!

So this woman messaged me on kik and said she found me on some kik finder (obviously lying but I didn't think of that then) and said she wanted to exchange some nudes. Me being the idiot I am I agreed. I sent her one with my whole body. Then she said she wanted to add me on facebook so that we could trade again (I didn't think any of it) so I gave her my info. Then she puts a bunch of my friends on the kik chat and says if I don't pay her $100 then she will send the pics to my friends. I was so scared I agreed to sending her money on western union, but that didn't go through (thank god). But I signed up for other accounts online that needed my debit card info. I didn't pay anything yet but im guessing Ill have there will be a hidden fee after the trials. She went to sleep I guess but she added me on facebook and wants me to add her, I haven't yet (and I don't want to.) She kept showing me pictures of my mom threatening me she would sent the pics.

Please someone tell me what to do. Im so scared. What should I do about my facebook account? And those other websites I signed up for? I want to just ignore her but I don't want my friends and family to see the pics. Please help.

Welcome to Scamwarners,

Block him from all your accounts. Yes, I did say him.

Make your FB account private.

Stop all contact with him.

If you pay any money he will keep having reasons why you need to pay more money.

I am in a similar situation and the person keeps showing me pictures of relatives saying they will send them my picture. The person also said they would post it to the ellen show (really weird) and are trying to blackmail me into joining some cam site. My fb profile settings are private but I still am worried about the person sending the picture to a family member or sibling. What should I do and what are the chances of the person posting it?

Ignore the scammer. Do not reply to any of his messages. Scammers are programmed that if you respond they still have a chance to steal your money.

If you pay the blackmail you will continue to pay it until you are bankrupt or stop the scam.

I sent intimate photos/video to my scammer or he says he recorded my activities on webcam, and now he is threatening to publish them. What can I do?
Unfortunately, there is not much you can do. The only advice we can give you is not to give in to blackmail demands, and once again, cut off ALL contact with the scammer. If he cannot reach you, he cannot blackmail you. If he knows that he has power over you, he will continue to abuse that power and demand more and more money. He may promise to destroy the photos/video, but remember he is a liar and a thief, and his promises are worth nothing.

The truth is, in most cases the scammer will not follow through with this threats, because following through will cost him time and money. If he tries to post anything pornographic, most public sites would delete it anyway. In the unlikely event that he does post something, you need to be proactive and contact the site immediately to have it removed. Depending on the threats, you may want to file a report with law enforcement.

Just remember for the future that any photo or video you give to ANYONE is out of your control, and anything you do on webcam can be recorded. This particular issue is not exclusive to scammers - the internet is full of stories of angry people who posted intimate details or photos/video of ex-partners after a relationship ended badly.

I just was almost blackmailed into giving a stranger $100 over some pictures. I have learned my lesson and know not to trust anything like that ever again but I need to know if there is anything else I can do to ensure this person doesn't send the pictures to my family!! I did some research (this site actually saved me from sending the money. Thank God.) and have locked down my Facebook account to be as private as I can. I didn't add the scam artist as my friend and they didn't add any of my family to the kik chat but they did find me on Facebook and knew who my family members were so I am afraid they may have PM'd them with the picture! Can anyone PM me and help me out??

I was nearly a victim of this scam too! I found this site as the blackmailer was pressuring me to wire the money and quickly locked down my Facebook account before I actually wired the money. I did not add the scam artist as a friend on Facebook during the scam so they couldn't post anything on my wall or any of my family's wall but could they have PM'd it to them?? Is there anything I missed? I'm very worried and hoping someone will PM me about this.

You may want to think twice about sending potentially embarrassing photos to strangers you just met on the internet . This has turned into a huge epidemic scam . If you nuked your profiles, dropped all contact and blocked their calls . You should be OK .

Please post any phone numbers or email addresses these criminals are using
