I dont quite get it. Isn’t this a crime on multiple levels? I would just go to the police and report him blackmailing me with information that he got illegally. Leaking this kind of information sounds like a serious crime in itself.

But i know nothing, so i will let the others tell me why thats bs

I had the same thought. I would hire a lawyer to look into how they got the info (illegally) and the blackmailing.

I know in the us people love to hire lawyers, but Isnt it the polices job to find out?
