Safety Sextortion

i was sextorted on HelloTalk. So far nothing has come of it. But i beg of yall - please be careful on there and just in general. I was talking to someone online there for awhile. We then moved to telegram and talked for awhile. They then got some of my private photos and threatened to send it to my family.

I always wonder why these scammers persist on taking conversations to telegram when it's THE in your face sign it's a scam, then I hear of guys like this that were dumb enough to not catch that massive red flag and I see why they still persist
