Blind faith was the undoing of a 23-year-old German living in Innsbruck. The young man was persuaded to send nude photos of himself to an online acquaintance. Then he was blackmailed – the victim agreed to the demand.
Apparently it started with a flirt, then turned into a “hot” sex chat and finally ended in blackmail! On Tuesday, a social media acquaintance got the 23-year-old to send her nude photos of herself via Messenger.
Mann was probably hoping for photos too
The German acceded to the request, probably hoping that he would also get an ordinary image. A big mistake that cost the young man a lot.
Victim transferred almost 1000 euros
“After receiving the nude photos, the unknown perpetrator threatened to send the images to all his social media contacts if he did not pay a three-digit euro amount in cryptocurrency,” police said.
The victim eventually accepted the request and transferred almost 1,000 euros. The next time he flirts online, he’ll probably be more careful…
