Oct 06 - RGP Warns Of Internet Sex And Blackmail Scam

Written on .

The Royal Gibraltar Police are warning the public of a new online sex and attempted blackmail scam that has been targeting Gibraltar’s Facebook users during the past week.

In this type of scam, it is common for those targeted to receive friend requests from females, who after brief interaction, request those targeted to activate their webcams.

After some initial interaction, victims may be asked to either engage in a sexual act in front of their webcam, or have a doctored image taken from the victim simulating him/her engaging in sexual acts. Scammers will then threaten the victim with distributing said video/images on the internet, demanding payments that can range from hundreds to thousands of pounds.

The advice in these cases is to never accept a friend request from anyone you do not know, and if you do become the target of any criminal activity, you should report the matter to the Royal Gibraltar Police.
