The most effective How to Stop Blackmail strategy is protecting your identity, shielding your family, and manipulating your employment and contact information from scammers. Doing so will prevent blackmail photo exposure and stop the sextortionist from returning in the future.
Before that happens, you must back the blackmailer off by delaying the demand for money. You do that by claiming you have no money and must borrow from a friend. Borrowing is the key because it removes the payment burden from you and puts it on a friend.
You must devise the best excuse that promises a payment in 24 hours. The scammer will be all over you like a dog and text bomb you like you have never seen before. Remember that the aggression and nonstop messages are a tactic to scare you and make you pay. You must stand your ground and not give in to the demand, no matter what they say or threaten.
Because you are freaking out, you will consider blocking or ignoring the aggressor. Do not; they will expose you. By maintaining communication, you have a certain amount of control. By negotiating, you keep the blackmail in play because they want money, and most will not expose you when there are payment talks. If you follow my directions, they will agree to back off for a day, giving you plenty of opportunity to decide on a plan.
Go dark online and delete your social media; however, if they are contacting you on Facebook, Instagram, Snap, or TikTok, do not delete that; wait until after the sextortion is successfully over. By quickly cleaning up your online profile, you help reduce the number of people they can contact.
Blackmail professionals all have their strategies. I view success as protecting your identity, preventing exposure, and getting rid of the blackmailer for good.
Protecting Your Identity: The tactic is manipulating what the criminal knows about you, your family, and your employment. The way to accomplish this is through disinformation, such as creating a fake business website with a profile for you, your spouse, and co-workers. The objective is to get the blackmailer to the site, which changes the threat. Instead of threatening to expose you on social media, they threaten the fake business website.
Preventing Exposure: This tactic involves nuanced negotiating and stalling but never paying.
