The story below just happened to a GYE member and I am writing it here with his permission. 
This is real. I spoke to Rabbi "Hashem Help Me" and he told me it's a mitzvah to publicize this...

---------------------------------
I am a regular Frum guy that is married for 15+ years with a family. I have been suffering from kedusha issues for many years since my Mesivta days. I have many ups and downs, but I am in hard spot now....

Unfortunately, due to my very strong natural desire, I have had these constant thoughts of being unfaithful and meeting someone outside of my marriage. It came to a head last week when I downloaded Telegram for the first time and I got caught up chatting with someone I believed to be a formerly frum girl. She offered to meet in a hotel and we chatted for many hours throughout the day. I was totally blinded and caught in the yetzer hara's web, and as if I was possessed, i did not use my brains at all and agreed.

She even convinced me that her Telegram was broken and got me to switch to WhatsApp and she convinced me to send her a very untzniusdik picture of myself with my face in it. Throughout the time, she manipulated me for money and when i finally had enough later that night and came to my senses, they forwarded the pictures back to me and started threatening me to pay them large sums of money or they will publicize the pictures and send to my wife etc.

B'H, i never met them and was never physically harmed or threatened but i was so scared that night, that i gave them $1,500 and told them i need more time for the rest. They want $8,000 total. I have not heard from them since because it has not been a week yet, but I am petrified they will come back for more and follow through on their threats. I need some advice and a listening ear....

I am trying to block this out, but every so often, my heart feels like it will explode and i break down crying. I am at a loss....
