As stated for the topic, im 19, scared, worried and being blackmailed for being really stuipid. A lady from the BBC is threatening me for 150 euro because she advertised herself as a legal skype porn star. I know I'm really dumb and shouldn't have taken such easy to spot bait, and I've done mybest to correct it. All I want is for paypal to make sure this person no longer has my email, and cannot get or request anymore money after I pay them for the last time. If there is anything else someone could recommend I do, it would be really helpful.

Very much doubt she is from the BBC and blackmailing you.

 

Why are you paying anyone money, they can't force you to pay just because they have your email address.

I think the person has nude images of him, if this is like other Skype scams, and will release them if he doesn't pay.

 

If this is the case, go onto Skype forums and see what type of advice they give you there.

I don't know if I should feel sorry or laugh after I read the reponse about this being releated to Skype and nude images.

 

Does the activity of the OP border or violating PayPal acceptable use policy with sexually explicit use?

Clear out the PayPal account of money, payment methods, close any active billing agreements on it, and close it. Then open a new PP account with a different email address.  Stay away from that interactive porn stuff.  Just watch clips and move on.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
