If they showed you your video on a website, can you post the site and account they posted it with.: Uploaded video to MediaFire. I don't know the account they posted it with, but they may have registered with MediaFire using their email address.
How were you to send the money ?: MoneyGram, with Western Union and Xoom as alternatives if MoneyGram didn't work.
What steps, if any, have you already taken to block the scammer?: I disabled my social media so they could no longer access my info via Internet search/connection.
Are there any other details you wish to share? Anything you say may help prevent someone else from being scammed, no matter how trivial it may seem at the time.: If you're already caught in the scam, make sure to save a video or screenshots of the interactions you have with the scammer, especially when in a skype call and the scammer is displaying their computer screen. You might be able to gain more information that way, which you can then share on this site.
Also, if you already gave in to the demands of the scammer and paid, stop all contact with the scammer before they ask you for more money. (But, of course, if you haven't given in, make sure to post the scammer info on this site BEFORE you make that mistake)
Again, for those of you who gave in:
Even if they claim to have deleted your video/photos, they still have it stored somewhere just in case. So, instead of waiting for confirmation from them that they deleted your material, just stop all contact before they threaten you again for more money with a surprisingly un-deleted video. That way, if the scammer has already verified receipt of the initial amount of money, they can't threaten you or ask you for more because they have no way of contacting you (and will likely move on to other targets, which is the unfortunate reality of things, BUT you can still help by posting the info you gleaned on this site).
I hope this advice helps.
