Never pay a Instagram blackmailer. It only lets them know you are scared and have the ability to pay. They will only ask for more money. They will never stop on their own.
Try to buy time. Tell them you are waiting for payday. Or tell them you need a week or two to borrow funds. Tell them you need to move money between accounts. Just buy yourself a little time to deal with this.
Seek professional help immediately. The sooner you call us, the sooner we can get between you and the criminals. Time is crucial, so don’t waste it.
Relationships online these days sometimes take an intimate turn. People share sexy pictures, exchange videos and engage in sexual talk. It might seem like just having fun, but sometimes it leads to blackmail.
Extortion of this kind is also known as “sextortion,” and it can involve money or a demand for more sexual images.
We have handled thousands of these cases, and we know all of their criminal tricks. In the vast majority of cases, we stop them from ever sharing any intimate images or private information.
To report extortion on Instagram, click on the three dots “…” on the upper right corner of any post by the perpetrator. Click “Find Support or Report Photo.” Tell them “someone is blackmailing me on Instagram.” This will alert Instagram to the problem. However, perpetrators often work in teams to create new fake accounts and continue the Instagram blackmail, or move to new social media platforms to harrass you. It takes a professional company to make them stop.
Once we take over your case, you will no longer have to deal with the blackmailers. We typically resolve the issue in a few days, and in some cases, we can do it in a few hours. Our experts know how to stop extortion on Instagram.

No. They will simply reach out to your family, friends and employers and show them your private photo or video. They hope to scare you into paying them to make them stop. But they won’t ever stop, of course, unless you take real action.
Probably not. Instagram Sextortionists usually operate overseas, beyond the jurisdiction of the FBI or your local police department. Law enforcement focuses on crimes in their own jurisdiction, and typically will not have the time to handle this Instagram blackmail situation for you.
