What To Do When Someone Threatens To Leak Your Nudes by Mazulu: 11:47pm On Dec 11, 2019
Recently, a female student of the Babcock University in Nigeria got rusticated because of her leaked sex-tape which circulated on the internet. However, a leaked sex-tape can carry more severity

Before then, a high school teacher in the United States, Lauren Miranda, was enjoying the view of her topless self in a mirror in her apartment, and decided to take a photo and share with her boyfriend, who happened to be a colleague. The private picture, which exposed her breasts would later circulate on the internet, resulting in an immediate suspension, and a coerced resignation. While in her case, she received no threat, her boyfriend who was the only recipient of the photo walked free.

The above paragraph was to bring to light the severity that follows a leaked nude, especially those of the female folk, in every society. A single leaked nude, no matter how harmless it may appear, has a great potential of destroying a person’s life and career forever. The years and resources invested into building that career would not matter, as it easier to tear down a thing than to build it, which is why when a person threatens to leak your nude, you need to take every precaution to stop it.

The internet has made leaked nudes even more popular, as social media makes it circulate fast and easily, with just one share. Once it hits the internet, even NASA cannot help you delete it. One leaked nude on Twitter will find its way to Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Nairaland, etc. Under 1 hour, a leaked nude will make you popular in the wrong way, and once it gets to your employers or administrators which it definitely will, you’ll be at the brink of losing everything.

If anyone threatens to leak your nude(s), follows any of these steps or tips, and you’ll be free.

Before we go into that, one great advice in order to prevent all of this brouhaha and inconvenience is not to share your nude at all. Most modern-day relationships rely on a high frequency of chats and the exchange of intimate photos, however, a relationship does not come the life-long insurance, which is why you should not trust anyone with your naked photo. A broken relationship may result in erratic actions and leaking your nude may just come with the package.

Report to the police and NGO

If the person is blackmailing you by demanding money, sex or any such thing, you should immediately report to the police with evidence of the blackmail. The police might however treat the case with impunity, which is why you should find an NGO that is likely to take up the case. Blackmail can be treated as a criminal offence, so you’re at the liberty of employing the services of a lawyer to quell the threat. If there is so much value attached to the nude, and you’re at the risk of losing your reputation, then taking this step is necessary.

However, if the person is unknown, you might need to employ a personal investigator, which would be more expensive. if caught, the person is likely to face jail time and miget even pay you for certain damages. If the person stole your nude, he/she would face a severe penalty when caught. Reporting the matter to Segalink is a very fast and efficient way of resolving this issue; Sega will stop at nothing in making the perpetrator understand that he or she is staring jail term in the face.

Delete the nude from the person’s smartphone

This trick is time-based and would not work after a certain expanse of time. If the person begins to threaten you just immediately after you sent the photo, you can quickly delete the photo from the chat, that’s if it is via WhatsApp. Even if the person already downloaded the photo, deleting it from the chat would delete it from the person’s gallery immediately.

Remove value from the photo

This last part is for when you have done all you can and nothing seems to be working. The truth is that when you attach so much value to a nude photo of yourself, it gives the person who is threatening to leak it more power and leverage. He/she is of the notion that you would do anything to stop your nude from hitting the internet, therefore, will make ridiculous demands. The moment you fall into that trap, there is no getting out. The demands would not stop coming in, and you’ll most definitely pay through your nose.

Removing value from your nude is not as easy as it sounds, however, it is a great step. People use this trick a lot to disarm blackmailers. All you need to do is to tell important people in your life about the nude photo, and you can ever go further bytelling those in your social media space. If the person threatening to leak the nude is known, then you should reveal his/her identity with evidence to the public. That is a Checkmate.

99% of the people who leaked nudes online do so under anonymous accounts, which shows that even the blackmailers want to stay private. Do not beg or cry, just disarm the person and you’ll be free again.

release the nudes yourself, and take away any power that person has over you... then learn a VALUABLE lesson in the same process: never have your face/tattoos etc that can be recognized on any nudes/sextape

If someone doesn’t release these videos or photos, we wouldn’t have a leaked tape or nudes, so why don’t we go to the source of the problem? Why don’t we have laws to serve as a deterrent? If you know releasing someone’s sex tape without consent will get you 10 years behind bars, you wouldn’t press the send button.

What we’re doing is placing all the responsibility on the victim, where does it stop? You do know some girls are filmed with hidden cameras or their pictures taken while they’re sleeping. So should we tell girls to always search their boyfriends’ houses? To make sure they keep their phones with them at all times? Which is easier?

There is nothing wrong in couples filming themselves having sex, couples have been doing it since the time of VHS, they should be free to do what they want in private. People shouldn’t be punished for trusting their significant other. The one that abuses that trust and brings to light what is supposed to be for private consumption should be the one punished.

We’re always envious of organized societies but they’re that way because of the rule of law. Oyibo people are not more civil than us, but they’re that way because in their societies there are enforced consequences to bad actions. Most sane countries have started passing revenge porn laws. So, it’s not difficult to curb, pass a law that makes it a crime and enforce it.

i think the source of this issue is simply people willing to put their nudity on display on film AND THEN putting such pics/tapes in the hand of people that they shouldnt trust. whether the law threaten to send someone to jail or not, is irrelevant in this issue as we all know that jilted lovers would do their worst, whether punishable by jail sentence or not.

when you cross the street, didnt your parents teach you to look left and right?!?!?! i believe that the same mindset should be used before making a sextape etc ... and if you are willing to put your face on a sextape, knowing fully well that your sex partner has as much right to do what they please with this tape as you do, then you should accept whatever outcome comes from such foolish gesture.

here is a simple clue: a person can have your sextape in their phone, claim to lose that same phone before releasing the sextape/pics etc and have some stranger at the end of the world releasing your sextape.... and nothing will happen to them.

Okay. So in situations where the sex tape is secretly recorded, how do we get justice for the victim? There was one a few years ago, the boyfriend’s laptop cam (set up by the boyfriend) was secretly recording, he threatened to leak the video if she broke up with him.

There have been pictures online of people snapped while they were sleeping. There have been phones and computers hacked to release private pictures, So what’s the best solution? Sometimes people are careless with their valuables but at least we all agree the thief should be punished.

P.S. I am not saying the victims shouldn’t be careful and discerning about who they should trust with their sex tape or nudes.

thats a different issue entirely, because the crime here is not "releasing" the sextape, but making that sextape without your knowledge.

as i stated earlier, "you have to look left and right before crossing the street"... this is your life and you have to protect it the best you can. why would you have nude pics (or sextapes) of yourself in your phone?! for what reason, when we all know that a phone can be lost/hacked? why would you fall asleep next to a stranger?! if it is sex you are seeking, then you have sex and then you thank them and ask them to leave your place or go home. i find it crazy that people would trust total strangers.... and then turn around and be mad when these same strangers take your pics.

yes. people should be punished but we have to get wiser too...

lol so how do we differentiate the two? If you make one source a crime but the other source not a crime. Isn’t it easy for the guy to say the girl was aware of being filmed? The only way to curb this menace is a sweeping law that punishes anyone that releases a sex tape or nudes without permission. This law protects victims with very poor judgments and victims that were filmed secretly.

There will always be women that are gullible and easily manipulated. We already know the victims of leaked sex tapes and pics have very poor judgment. So we lambast them online and then what? Till another sex tape scandal? Rinse and repeat.

There are different ways and sources for predators to get sex tapes that are not always the fault of the victim. If we have too much of a tunnel vision, heaping all the blame on the victim, then these predators have found a very fertile society to weaponize release of sex tapes and nudes.

but how do you prove who did what?what if the person was ok with releasing the sextape and then when things fell apart, turns around and claim its was against her will?!

... maybe we should teach people about the DANGERS of such action.

stop calling people in these sextapes victims.... many gladly pose for these sextapes and are happy that many are viewing these tapes.... its only when they fall off with their partner that the sextape is suddenly an issue. you cant simply blame the people releasing the sextapes here.... this issue is just as much to blame from both parties aka the actors in these tapes AND the person who released it.
who are you trying to kid here? the majority of women fully well know that men who have such sextapes will show the tape to ALL HIS FRIENDS and gladly share it with them "undercover".... thats the main reason why these tapes are made, to begin with.

A person with a poor judgment doesn’t cease being a victim. They’re victims of unauthorized release of their sex tapes or nudes.

I guess we’ve to agree to disagree. You think the solution is as simple as just telling girls to stop sending nudes, I disagree. Personally, I think the more effective method is a law criminalizing it. I don’t think someone is going to threaten (which is proof) to release nudes when they know they can do jail time.

its funny how you automatically view women who are willing participants in these sextapes as victims... have you forgotten the latest sextape about that Babcokc student? did you forget how she was gladly posing for the sextape and even moving the dude so she could be shot in a better angle? this babe could have been a lot of things, but a victim in this sextape, i beg to differ. the sextape may have been released against her will but she was a WILLING PARTICIPANT in this home video, and certainly not a victim.

the law is just as important as prevention... believing that only a law can fix such issues is wrong IMHO.

and the above is exactly where my beef is in this issue:
A) these people make a sextape/nudes
B) lady fully well knows that dude will show/share it to all his mates (for bragging right)
C) the lady has absolutely NO problem with the above point B
D) when they break up, suddenly it is an issue because she now realizes she doesnt want anyone to see how foolish she was to accept point B at the 1st place.
finally how do you evaluate who has the rights to release such tapes/pics?! when paparazzi are taking pics of celebrities and posting it in their newspapers and online, there is NO problem with that.... when we film people stealing, people falling in public, people being beat up, people being killed etc, there is also NO problem with showing such videos against a person's will.... countless yeyebrities are showing nudity online and gladly have their sextapes released to the public (against their will) and there is still NO problem with that....but suddenly, now you expect these people to act any differently?!

this is the social media age we live in, where people would gladly send their nudes to total strangers, and then turn around and be mortified when that said nude becomes public. as i always say: if you dont want you pictures to be public then dont give such pics/vids to ANYONE!!!!

dude!!! I am not going to agree with you. People in love trust people they are in love with and do not expect them to share their intimate moments with the rest of the world even when the relationship goes sour. Releasing an unauthorized sex tape/nudes should be a crime in a civilized society, the releaser is a perp and should be in jail. The one whose sex tape and nudes were released without permission is a victim of revenge porn.

For a crime to be written into law, there has to be a perp and a victim. Unless you’re saying spitefully releasing someone’s sex tape intentionally shouldn’t be a crime. Just because someone is not a model victim doesn’t mean they’re not victims.

Also, clamoring for laws doesn’t mean that common sense, good judgment etc goes off the window.

We have laws that criminalizes theft, we know some victims of theft are very careless with their valuables. Theft is a crime, but people are still careful with their valuables. Criminalize revenge porn and people should be more careful who they give access to their intimate pics and videos.
