NORFOLK COUNTY - Norfolk OPP reminding the public to be cautious after investigating an extortion.
Police say a Norfolk resident got a friend request from a woman online. They started to chat, and eventually she asked for intimate photographs and videos. Those images were shared. The woman then told the victim, they needed to send $400, or she would share the photos and videos with everyone on the victims friend list through various online platforms.
Police are warning all computer users to beware. We live in a connected world where it's easy to feel as if our far-away friends are right next door. Having a face-to-face conversation with someone is gaining in popularity and everyone needs to be vigilant when engaging in online video chats or text messaging
