i dont know what to do

[hardy otter]

hey, someone messaged me on whatsapp idk where he got my number from and he told me he will post a pciture of me (ai generated but it looks like me) on my schools own plattform. idk what to do and he messaged me for 2 months now and always i block him he messages me from a new number and i dont wanna tell my parents. || i dont know i already think abt k*lling myself.. ||

pls ping on answear

Oof. This is hard.

If you feel in danger, please tell your parents—your safety is the top priority.
Even though it might be scary, talking to a friend or an adult you trust can really help.
You could also try reporting it to the school, and if you want, look up the number on a number lookup site.

Just remember—your life matters, so much. (Enough for a stranger on the internet to care and reply to your message!)

[muted thicket]

I wholly agree with this

[hardy otter]

he wants that i give him like "pictures" or money i dont wanna tell my parents and i wish i could go to the police without anyone telling my parents

[fast viper]

Why don’t you wanna tell your parents

[hardy otter]

Becouse i don't know how they react

[fast viper]

Don’t worry, they will care and help you, no matter what
I’m sure of it
I don’t see a bad outcome from telling them and the police

btw the guy messaging you is probably a predator, they take photos of kids and ask the ai to make inappropriate content of them, for blackmail or for their own sick disgusting pleasures
I don’t know what kind of picture he sent you, and I don’t know what kind of pictures he’s asking for, but I really think this is the case

[hardy otter]

i guess you can mby guess what pictures he means

i just hope he doesnt really know what school im on 🙏

Whatever you do, do not send any pics, dont even try to talk to him. it will make the situation worse.

Know you are not alone in this, and yeah, i would tell my parents if this happened to me, i would rather tell them than not feeling safe.

there is a very low chance he knows which school you go to btw

[hardy otter]

yeah i try but idk ....

[fluid current]

i feel you. if you keep blocking him and not talking to him, he will prob go away sooner or later. hopefully will run out of phone numbers, in that case you wont have to tell them if you dont want to.

Warn your school, report him for blackmailing since it is illegal

What is the photo? Is it anything explicit?

[hardy otter]

i already a little bit broke my sim card so i got a new one i hoped that i will get a new phonmme number but it didnt change becouse telekom just sent us a new sim card..

[fluid current]

maybe use a google voice number instead, they are free.

then disable your old one

[jade silo]

Im sorry youre going through that. It sounds like you struggle with money too 😦

Yeah use a different number from an app like TextNow or Google Voice

Please report this guy anyways! He made a deepfake which is illegal and you most likely aren't the only victim

[hardy otter]

is google voice available in germany?

[jade silo]

I believe it's available in almost all countries

[hardy otter]

i guess its not available in north korea lol

[fast viper]

He probably dosent
sometimes people who do stuff like that just straight up lie
and If he mentioned the name of your school anywhere in the text, id probably assume he’s a stalker, or a scammer that got you to click some sort of link in the past

[jade silo]

Yeah

[fast viper]

You should still report him though

What he’s doing is harmful and very illegal

[jade silo]

Yeah did he show you the photo? If so, what was it?

[fast viper]

No, he didn’t

I don’t really wanna know, it’s probably explicit

[jade silo]

Damn. Well just know, Annika, if it is sexual then that is beyond illegal and extremely fucked up of him

[fast viper]

Yeah I know
I heard a guy walked around Disney land taking photos it recordings of kids and putting them into ai like that

[jade silo]

Oh my god...

[fast viper]

Awful stuff

[jade silo]

They didnt even do anything like let kids be kids god dammit people are such fucking creeps sometimes

[fluid current]

just like bubbles said, it is very illegal. if you choose to tell the police they do have the power to trace messages, but otherwise try and ask the phone company for a new number.

[hardy otter]

yes

[hardy otter]

yea

Best of luck ❤️ and remember you are not alone.
