I’m a minor and am currently being sextorted. I met this person on app who seemed legitimate enough to me, because the app is strictly teenagers. The chat moved over to ig as as soon as I sent explicit photos the demeanor changed.

He sent me back the picture I sent him, with writing on it saying “let’s make him viral”, and the background was of all my mutuals on ig. He then demanded money, which I stupidly gave him. I didn’t know what to do in that moment and stupidly sent him the money. He asked for more which I sent. In total I have sent him 200 I feel so dumb.

He’s now asking me to get him a gift card tomorrow. And have all the texts and two emails he has. One was the email I was texting him on and the other was the email he made me send the virtual gift cards to. I talked to my parents about it and looked on TikTok and the best thing I can do is not respond or send any money, and just hope he doesn’t send it to all my friends.

But is there anyway to get more info on this guy? I have his emails, and I believe he is American by the way he texts and slang he uses. But like is there anything I can find through an email? I don’t have the skills to find info through an email, but if anyone on here does please help me. I am planning on going the police on this. Please someone help me find this evil human being, ik I’m not his first victim.

Hello,

I stay in my room for days on end barely going out to use, only to use the bathroom and grab a drink and occasional junk food. all I do is smoke weed, which doesn’t give me the same feeling it did years ago. I feel so emotionally numb and dull 24/7, but I guess that is better than being extremely depressed.

Does anyone have any words on how to just get going and get back on your feet. I want to get back in the fight of life, and change myself for better. Unfortunately addiction and my emotions have the best of me right now. Part of me feels bad, and a lot of me wants to better myself. Yet days just pass by of me doing the same things.
