Fell for sextortion i believe
A person was targeted in a sextortion scam by an individual in Algeria who initially engaged in intimate conversations and later blackmailed them with threats to leak nudes. The victim reported the incident to the FBI and StopNCII but acknowledges the scammer likely has no legal recourse due to the consensual nature of the interactions.
