So I'm a pretty lonely dude. Don't have a gf or anything. Not saying I'm ugly or anything, just think relationships are complicated. Another part about being a dude means I'm always horny. Friends with benefits is almost never practical in real life, so I stick to video cam stuff; you know, being intimate with a real person but not having to worry about the baggage.
So anyway, it's a Saturday night in my dorm room and my roommates gone for the weekend. I must've gotten off 5 times earlier that day. But it's night now. This is the perfect opportunity to meet some babes on Chattroulette.
Jerking off on cam websites is actually a lot of work. First, 95% of the people you see are dudes, most with their boners hanging out. Second, you have to make sure you're in the clear; I had the dorm room all to myself so I was good. Third; the goddamn camera angle is always a pain in the ass to get right. Your partner wants to see you, but that might mean putting your laptop in a weird position. It's all an art form tbh.
Anyway, I don't like to start off with a dick out right away. I usually show myself and come off as this shy, mysterious dude. I met a couple people, but didn't find the right one for a while. Anyway, I eventually meet this stunning blonde woman. I can't believe she's real, so ask for a hand wave, and I get one. Ok, it's on. She seems to be interested in me and I'm interested in her. I tell her a little about myself and she sends me a website she says she's building. Some bare bones design blog. She seems cool.
She removes her shirt and I do the same. I ask her to do a couple things for me; do a spin, touch certain spots etc. It's all just perfect.
Until her cam shits out. The messenger is still going. She says Chatroulette is being dumb and we should move to Skype. Great, I think, now this can be a regular thing between us.
After a few minutes, we move to Skype and her screen is blank. I type something like "Hello? Can you see me? I can't see you."
"I can see you." She responds.
And then out of fucking left field, her cam starts playing a video of me jerking off! I panic the fuck out.
"Dude wtf why did you record me???"
You ever see the movie Unfriended? That's what my life was at that moment.
She types some shit like "Listen to everything I say. I know your name is ****** *******." My skype is linked to my FB. "Do as I say or I'll send the video to ******" people that had the same last name as me.
I freak the fuck out some more. "Ok ok wtf do you want me to do?"
She sends me a link to some janky ass PayPal knockoff and gives me an email address. "Send $800 to this email address or I'll send the video to your family."
I'm all like "I'm a broke college kid! I don't have $800! I can show you my bank account! I don't have money!"
The convo basically was us arguing the amount of money I would give to keep this video a secret. I legitimately didn't have the money but there was no way I was going to let a jerkoff video of me be sent to my family on FB. After checking online later, I read that it's best to ignore these frauds since they usually don't send the video, but in the heat of the moment, I gave in to her demands.
I basically got her to take $400. I say to her "I have $300 on 1 card and $100 cash. I can put it in my card but it's Saturday night and the banks aren't open"
She demands to know the city I live in so she can find a bank that's still open. Foolishly, I give it to her, and she finds a grocery store with a bank in it. At 10:00 PM on a Saturday, I rode my bike half an hour away in the cold to a bank in a city I didn't know much about. I get to the store and want to cry. It's closed. At the same time, my phones about to die, so there's a 30 minute window where I won't know if she's sent the video to anyone.
She becomes really upset after I tell her it's closed. She demands I come back as soon as it opens in the morning and send the money to her. Still freaked out, I oblige.
I get up early and send her the money. After that, there was a change in her attitude and she suddenly was nice to me. I get the feeling most people tell her to get lost after she blackmails them. She swears she deleted the video and is of her word (like I'd believe her anymore). Things like "I really liked your body" and "if you want, I can let you be my business partner and give you 20%" are said.
No way in hell am I joining this bitch, but I pretend to be interested just to squeeze some info out of her and see how this whole thing works. She has me add her on her main Skype account.
She admits she's actually a bisexual man and that this sort of scam is very common where she's from. He's got a few other people working for him and is offering me a position. This guy is really fucking dumb. But he's also bisexual, so this gives me an idea.
I pretend to be interested in showing him more. Completely immoral, I know, but I have a plan. I was able to do some detective work with the skype email he gave me and the fake woman he pretended to be. I find some posts on a forum that's about scams people have had done to them. This guy's email and the fake name come up a couple times. From there, I was able to find a YouTube page and a Google+ account. The Google+ page had a pic of a man from Morroco. I reversed image searched the pic and found a MySpace page and some other social network. I also had access to the fake website she sent me, the design blog. I do a bit more snooping and find the website is registered to the same dude in Morocco. The registrar page has the Skype email, a phone number, and a home address, you guessed it, in Morocco.
Great, I know who this guy is, but it's not like I can have police sent to his house to arrest him. He lives in another continent. I did remember, however, that Morocco has some strict anti-homosexuality laws, and this dude was bisexual.
So for the next week, I get friendly with the guy. "I'm very interested in your business plan and getting to know how it works." We eventually skype face to face (don't worry, I don't show anything). He's the same guy in the Google+ pics. He explains how the video works. We skype again, and he says "ok asks me to do something"
I say "ok give the camera the finger" and then bam! The lady gives the camera the bird. He explains that he has a control panel of a pre recorded video of some nude lady. If some chat dude wants her to squeeze her tits together, he plays a video of her doing that. Think of a prank call soundboard.
The whole time, he's being flirtatious with me. He tells me "I'm not gay. I just like ass." I show my ass (fully-clothed) a couple times. I know, I know. "Why are you showing this guy your ass? You can't trust him." Well, I would agree, but he eventually starts jerking off on camera, so what do I do? I start recording HIS creepy ass! I have proof of this dude jerking off to a man! Very foolish mistake on his end.
So let's review what dirt I have; his name, address, phone number, and a video of him being homosexual. I've been sitting on this goldmine for almost a month now. I know I can get him in serious trouble. I'm too scared to show/tell anyone about what happened. I considered going to 4chan and explain my situation to see what they would do, but it's likely they'd laugh in my face. And what if I do somehow get this guy in trouble in Morocco? What if he didn't delete the video of me? I've considered waiting YEARS before trying to get his sleazy ass in trouble just ensure my video is gone. It has easily been this strangest thing to happen to me. Now I'm $400 broke and don't know what to do.
