Hi. Recently, I stupidly went on a video call with a stranger except that she claimed her webcam was spoilt. We talked about many things and one thing led to another. Eventually, we chanced upon the topic 'sex'. I was slightly awkward about the topic but I decided there was no harm. And being stupid, I agreed to play a game 'Strip hangman' with her and of course, I lost. I was down to panty and bra when she started telling me to pose. Of course I did and I knew I should have ended the call back then but I didn't.

So, here's the problem. She approached me today in Facebook and threatened that if I do not video-call her later, she'll post the photos of me ( almost-naked ) throughout the internet. This is bad, I mean really bad. I feel really guilty and dirty now. :( Help me please. What should I do? She says we won't be playing any games anymore. I am scared.

I'm still a student and I'm afraid of having my image ruined.

You can call your local Police Department - I trust you have printed out the threat - ?

You need to call her bluff. Maybe she'll post the photos, maybe she won't. You can always get them pulled IF you find them, but that takes time.

You cannot threaten people, although Police aren't terribly interested in Internet activity.

Sorry you gave her the photos, lesson learned, guess you can't run for political office now. There is nothing you can do about poor judgement, stop contact and don't let her know it bothers you.

This could be a group of men and women who do this all the time to blackmail people.

She really does have my photos and I'm really scared. Although you say I should ignore her, but I feel really bothered by this and she says she will not hesitate to post them online..

Then go to the Police and try to stop her - that's all you can do.

And even that may not stop her.

Yes, it's a terrible lesson learned and I have to ask if alcohol was involved? Seems like a very bad decision when the other party is a total stranger.

No alcohol was involved and I agree that's a really bad decision ! I think there's something wrong with her brain!!

You willingly participated - that's the part that I don't understand. Her brain wasn't the only brain involved here. What about yours?

I think there is also something wrong with your brain as well. Sorry to have to say that. When you say her webcam was "spoilt" do you mean it wasn't working so she could see you but you couldn't see her?

That should have raised alarm bells, so once this game of strip hangman was proposed you should have stopped the call then and there.

Tell her that you have reported her threats to the police and there will be no more communications.

Fortunately for you, you are young and if she does post these pics, you can pass them off as youthful indiscretion.
