Just got scammed

Hey there, i just got scammed.

I was writing with a "girl" on Bumble. Everything went well until she told me to write her over WhatsApp. She started to send pictures and told me she was on holiday in my hometown. She told me that we should meet, but first, she wanted to videocall. In the videocall, she started showing herself and talked me into showing my "package." I don't know why I did this; I just wanted to make a new experience I guess🫠. As soon as I showed her what she wanted, she hung up. Afterwards, I got texts with my pictures and that I should pay 500€ or she would leak everything.I did not pay, instead i blocked her number and reported her. But 5 minutes later, a new number wrote to me. This time with the text: "Send 500€ or i will destroy youre life!", with a screenshot of a chat with an friend of mine over Instagram. In the screenshot, you could see that she sent the pictures to my friend, with the text: "You know this dirty bastard?" I then again blocked the number and reported it. I asked my friend if she received the pictures, but she didn't get anything. So I guess it was photoshopped just to scare me. I then changed my social media accounts to private and changed my profile pictures.I reported her over Bumble, blocked her and deleted my account. I haven't gotten any new texts or calls since then, but I will keep you updated.

If youre also getting scammed:

Stay calm, dont pay. Worst case: Shes gonna send the pictures/videos to some of youre friends. They all have watched porn, they all know what a dick looks like, it aint new for them. Some will talk to you, some will call you and some will ask you for a date😂 But it wont destroy your life. Get yourself a cold beer and a pack of cigarettes and calm down. The world is still spinning and nothing changed.
