The story started as a romance and ended as a blackmail scam/sextortion. The victim was contacted on Facebook. After a while, the scammer requested intimate pictures from the victim. When he asked for money and the victim refused to pay, he was using those pictures to blackmail the victim and to convince her to send the money.


Posted on the behalf of the victim:

He approached me through FB messenger. He asked to be friends. I started chatting with him. He asked me to download viber so that it wouldn't cost to talk privately. He told me he was from Frankfurt Germany working in Istanbul on offshore rig and he was the maintenance engineer. A widow with a 12 year old son. 56 years old. Parents dead no friends.

He kept saying his contract ended in 2 weeks and then he would be available to visit. He approached me about the 5000.00 dollars because he said he needed it to help buy an engine that was vital to complete his contract. I told him I had no money. He kept insisting. That is when I blocked him on FB. I have already closed FB and everything associated with. I have changed my phone #. The picture he sent me is a t shirted man with glasses medium brown short hair. Ordinary looking person. He speaks with a slight accent on viber but on my phone message it is a very thick accent.

He told me to send $5000 to a person he designated in Turkey by Western Union. When I told him I did not have any money and why he couldn't get a backer for his business he got ugly then. Said he would send those pictures to my family friends and my church and workplace. He showed 3 on that last email but he still has one more I am sorry to say. He says he was holding it to send if I did send the money.

I love you and as long as we are together I have everything I need. You are with me always... In a smile, a memory, a feeling Or a moment we share.You will always be mine Forever Love. If I knew how to write a song, I’d write one everyday it would say that I’m in love with you and why I feel this way. love you so much.I am on my lunch break now and i can not write to you much but i just want to express my feelings i have for you even with the distance and i want you to listen to this song and see how much i truly feel and love you (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBhQfzfIQCU ) Kisses and hugs from the depth of my heart to you.

Hello honey as i promise to always send you mail,here i got this one for you my love.You’re my comfort when I’m lonely, you’re my peace when I need rest ,Of all the women I’ve known I must rate you the best.You’re the orchard in the jungle, you’re the better half of me, You’re all of this and so much more, you mean the world to me Still so much is left unsaid, It would take me far to long, I know how much I love you,If only I could write a song.You walked lightly into my life,Captivating and lovely to my mind,at first, I never cared who you were ,Now I don’t know who I am without you, I kissed you, I felt my world change, You walked lightly into my life Now my heart knows who you are and with every breath and every step, I take down lonely roads.Your hand is my staff and your voice is my guide.Your strength is my shelter, you’re passion my awakening.

You walked lightly into my life, and all my pain you took as your own,and all my fears,you cast into the sea, and all my doubt Lost in your eyes,You walked lightly into my life,And no matter if you choose to stay or go,My life is forever changed,Just because you loved me,For a moment in time.And because I choose to love you for the rest of my life. I will continue to love you more and more,and i adore you for your kind heart of understanding and you know how to make a man happy and i am so proud of you my love.Life without you will be so miserable but thank God for bringing us together.I just can't get you out of my mind and i am thinking about what this relationship means to me and what it will become in future the love that we both share.What matters the most is the heart that is willing to give out love and be there at all time in good and bad times because life is all ups and down and i am happy for having you beside me because you are all i got.I don't really have much words to describe my love for you than to say i love you unconditionally.

And here is a song i got for you my love (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NAAOS1i5wWc)

Looking forward to read from you soon my love.

Robert.
