I’m in a really stressful and scary situation. A few days ago, someone online tricked me into sharing a private video. Now they’re threatening to leak it to my Instagram followers unless I give them what they want. I don’t know if they’ve actually uploaded it or are bluffing, but they mentioned something about using a site like Sendvid to share the video.
I no longer have access to the chat, and I don’t have a link to the video. They’re using fear to control me — and I’m really panicking. I haven’t told anyone in my life yet because I feel ashamed, but I want to do the right thing and stop this before it spreads or ruins my life.
I’ve already read that this is called sextortion, and that it’s a serious criminal offense in the UK. But I’m not sure what my next steps should be.
Has anyone here been through this and can offer advice? How likely is it they’ll follow through? Will the video be taken down if I don’t have a link?
TL;DR TIFU Someone is threatening to leak a private video of me
