Why You Should Never Send Nudes to Anyone Over the Internet

Sextortion, to put it simply, is blackmailing someone for money after tricking them into sending nude photos during an intimate conversation. The criminal threatens to splatter the nudes to close friends and family of the victim unless he or she pays up. Most of the time, the victim is a male, and the criminal is a female or a male pretending to be a female. In many instances, police uncovered that females were being held at gunpoint and forced to play roles in these types of crimes.
