4. If you met on a website, did they ask you to talk to them off it? If so, what progam did they suggest?Skype. Video was recorded using
http://www.eatcam.com5. How long was it before the subject of removing clothes was brought up?2-3 days after 1st contact
6. Who brought it up?Scammer did.
7. How long after this did the blackmail start?The next day morning. The scammer purposely asks to wait for "wake up call" the next morning, said will send "photos" over.. Instead, scammer starts the blackmail. This makes me think scammer purposely timed the blackmail when victim just woken up, mind still blurry, unable to react will full conscience, need to get to work - and scammer makes use of this opportunity to hammer you with threats, to make you act on the payment quickly without thinking too much.
8. How much was asked for, how did they tell you to pay it and how long did they give you to pay it?USD1,000. Western Union (scammer account details as above). Till noon (about 4 hours timeframe).
9. What did they tell you the consequences of your not paying would be?Spread the YouTube video (private mode) to my FB friends list.
10. How did you end up on this site? If you used a search engine, what phrase did you search for?I found this site (specifically this thread) by google searching "NICHOLE PEREZ scam"
