Men Victims Of The Internet
I’m sorry to be prying on this sensitive subject, but it seems that this terrible matter is starting to become a problem for an increasing number of men from different economic and academic backgrounds, who are getting caught up in what appears to be a sting operation that could potentially mark them for life. I have seen families fall apart and men have to move to a different town and even acquire a new identity. Most likely, this is the first time you are hearing about this topic and what follows as you read will have no direct relevance to you. In fact, you could even be a woman and this story is about men getting ready online.
If, as I hope, this topic is completely foreign to you, please pass this note on to other men you know and care about. You could be doing them a big favor.
We hear a lot about young girls being groomed online by older men. This is, of course, one of the most disturbing issues related to the use of the Internet. What we don’t hear, though, and what you’re about to discover as you read on, is the ease with which men, of all ages, are being treated by women over the internet, having their photos, videos and personal data. and then it is distributed on websites of a certain nature all over the world.
In short, there are some free forums on the internet for people to chat about anything and everything. Naturally, these forums tend to be seen as “meeting places” where people talk to strangers, exchange ideas, and seek relationships, virtual or otherwise. You can usually join one of these forums for free and start chatting right away.
For many people, chatting online is just another way to wind down from the chores of the day by having a relaxing conversation with other online chatters. Most online chat rooms are friendly places, but sometimes, as you will discover, they can be very dangerous. Male chat room users should be especially aware that some of the most popular chat rooms are home to some very dangerous predators who use chat rooms to threaten and extort money from male users.
These dangerous predators I’m talking about are believed to be women who have conspired to groom men and then blackmail them.
Is that how it works:
The predator would start a nice conversation with its victim and convince her to move the conversation to another chat site to make it more difficult to trace her identity. They will then persuade their victim to perform compromising acts, totally naked, in front of a webcam.
Without the knowledge of its victims, the predator will capture the video, save it on your computer, edit it, and then post it on hundreds of websites, the nature of which is obvious.
But there is still something worse to come. The way the operation seems to work is as follows: Initially, the woman will search for her victim. She will try several men before finding one who seems naive when it comes to using the Internet. Predatory women are not looking for perverts or men who are regular visitors to certain types of websites, as these men tend to be much more suspicious and much more discreet.
Instead, they look for easy prey. Your typical victim will be a school teacher, dentist, or police officer. The initial conversation will be very innocent. It tends to be about work, family, location, etc. Suspecting nothing, the victim usually reveals the names of their children and the name of the company they work for. Naturally, once they have given this type of information, men become even more trusting.
It’s somewhat psychological that sharing personal information accelerates the feelings of trust we feel about our partner into the conversation. Then the woman talks about herself and surprise surprise it turns out that she and her victim have a lot in common.
You both may be feeling a bit lonely, you both might have some marital difficulties to work out, and you both are likely longing for love and affection. Neither of them, of course, will contemplate having an affair primarily because of his loyalty to his family.
At the suggestion of the predatory woman, the conversation will move to a private chat program like Yahoo Messenger or MSN Messenger. This will break the ‘continuity of evidence’. While in public chat, parties can be tracked relatively easily via their account registration details. This will be an almost impossible task with a private chat program. Moving from one chat program to another will also break the link between grooming and the shocking action that will follow.
The conversation will continue in the private chat program and it will become more and more personal until it becomes purely suggestive.
Eventually, the victim will be encouraged to perform a compromising act on themselves, on camera, so that the predator, whose job is nearly done, can “watch, participate, and enjoy.” Once the act of commitment is concluded, the chat will come to an abrupt end, by the predator simply shutting down the program on its end.
What happens next is very interesting and probably beyond most people’s understanding.
After the video conversation which was recorded in its entirety by the predator on her computer, she will compile various video clips and give them titles like ‘John Smith From 91 Cleveland Lane Road, London, A GP and Child Molester Fxxxg himself in front of School Children’, as well as other similar colorful comments. He will then post these videos on various websites including YouTube and distribute them to many other websites around the world. The victim will wake up in the morning to a new reality.
You will first find an interesting email in your mailbox from an unknown email address with a short note from your predator and a video attached. After viewing the horrifying video, most victims will immediately perform an Internet search under their own name only to find that their worst fears have been realized. By now, the links contained in the videos have gained so much popularity, especially after their worldwide distribution via blogs and emails, that sometimes almost the entire first page of a Google search can be filled with links. to these videos, each time with a different title and comment. A whole nightmare.
If the victim is married, you should now talk to your wife and explain how you allowed this situation to happen. This, as you can imagine, would be quite a challenging task in itself. It could be a matter of time before his employers, children, other family members, neighbors, business associates, or even some bullies will find out that he is really a child molester or pedophile. At this stage, victims typically seek legal advice.
They want to know what would happen if, or rather when, these videos were discovered by certain people, particularly their employers. With most employers, it is a firing offense to bring your organization into disrepute. Naturally, when we talk to the victims, many of them are in a state of extreme shock. Before addressing any other issues that concern you, we as defamation lawyers prioritize the immediate removal of the videos from the various video hosting websites.
This could be done quite quickly but of course the sooner we act the better because as time goes by the number of links tends to increase and so does the popularity of the videos as well as the number of people copying these videos. your personal computer and could potentially redistribute them in the future. However, deleting these videos does not guarantee that they will not appear again in the future. It is important that victims register with a monitoring system that operates 24/7 to give early warning of any future distribution of their compromising videos.
Potentially, these videos can reappear on the Internet at any time in the next few years. In any case, with the internet, it’s all about speed, so removing these videos from video hosting sites as quickly as possible is the priority.
I can’t say for sure what the precise motive behind the predatory woman’s action is, but having seen so many of these cases lately, I have no doubt that there is a system behind this operation and I am almost convinced that the predators did. make. this for money. In legal terms, all victims in such cases have a cause of action in court, particularly for violation of privacy.
Although legal action could eventually lead us to the identity of the predator, this would be very costly and bring more unwanted attention to the matter, and with it more damage to the victims’ reputations. In cases like this, any publicity is bad publicity.
The police are unlikely to be willing or able to intervene, mainly due to a lack of resources and the fact that victims choose not to file a formal complaint. I’ll let your imagination imagine the devastation this could cause someone. I have seen male victims change their name and move to a different city to avoid detection. I also witnessed families falling apart and men feeling suicidal after their involvement as victims in this operation.
Legally, there is little that can be done to turn back time. No level of compensation will persuade any sane man to take such a matter to court. Sometimes keeping your head down is the best advice to follow. What remains is for us to spread the word, inform the public and educate people to be more vigilant while chatting on the Internet. You have to remember that the vast majority of men whose lives fall apart as a result of being fixed are innocent victims who may have been guilty of being naive or even a little reckless, but they certainly aren’t sex offenders or perverts and don’t deserve the chain. lifelong potential that they may have to fulfill day after day.
Most people would agree that it is important to educate both adults and children about some of the dangers of Internet chat. These are the dark sides of our new global society and they are not likely to just go away. Only by having people like you pass this information on to others can we make the Internet a safer place for both ourselves and the next generation.
