For several months, I have been attempting to free my friend from internet bullies who have been blackmailing her into sending nudes, changed her profile pic to that of a Nazi symbol, with the threat of posting the names and addresses of family and friends on websites that consist of Craigslist, the Deep web etc.

The girl is terrified of the probability of internet disciples attacking her family and friends, and she has told me in the past, that people have knocked on her door with the hope of getting into her knickers.

I have told her in the past that no one is going to hurt her family and friends duo to the threat of a prison sentence but Ruby (I have given her a fake name for obvious reasons)told me that the police do not give a ***, and that according to 'the feds' the strangers who have visited her have not committed a crime since 'visiting' is not breaking the law.

I will give you a few examples of how sadistic those bullies can be; the trolls keep posting the images of her nudes as well as the addresses of her family/friends. One scumbag even created a fake account posing as her deceased mother with taunts of 'Hello Princess, mummy is back from the dead'

Oh! and did I mention that one of the creeps have hacked into the camera of her computer/smartphone device with the goal of spying and listening to her conversations in the physical realm? The man in question has already told the girl of her personal conversations with her brother, dad etc after she refused to believe that he has been spying on her.


I have tried to help my cyber friend but because of the extremity of her paranoia and fear for the safety of her nearest and dearest, she carries on sending the bullies those dreaded images, who by the way, continue to go back on the deal and share the images/addresses amongst the communities on the inter webs.

Me and my friend have had a number of heated arguments over the fact that no matter how many images that Ruby delivers, the trolls will use it as a weapon of mental abuse and power to gather more images of her body and still post the address, but she carries on regardless.

She thinks that being forced into changing her profile to that of a Nazi symbol will not cause problems in her personal life, but I am sure it will and that is another topic that opens the doors to the furnace.

Her so called friends have told her that the trolls amongst the denizens who prowl the deep web are potential serial killers and rapists, all this has added to her fears.

We have never met, but we have been internet buddies for about 3 years.

Yes, I have read every word you have written.


Sorry my replies don't suit, I'll leave it now and wish you the very best.
I'd suggest the very best advice you could give Ruby is to get off the internet and find something more healthy to do with her life.

Mamy and others, here is a comment from Ruby who beginning to anger me.

"I'm not feeding you ***, I'm telling you that you do not know every damn thing that is going on here. You don't know everything about this. Cause a plane crash? You and I both know that is a bit of an exaggeration. I can't help how my damn voice is. And if my voice is so horrible then why was I never bullied about it when I was bullied for just about everything else in school. For Funks Sake, I'm not blaming you or anyone! I could have just let these idiots continue to talk *** about you in the past when we were mad at each other, but I didn't, even in this damn post even though I didn't say much because I kept going in and out of awareness I still *** tried. I could have muted this post and let you fight the two of them on your own with hoping to get peace, but I'm obviously still here. If I wanted to, I could have *** agreed when lol cancer said that you were a faggot while say that I'm not instead of saying you're not a faggot. You don't even *** see how much I fight for hours until things start to happen and continue to happen until I give in. I NEVER SAID THAT YOUR GOD DANG COMMENTS WERE ENCOURAGEMENT! LOOK AT HOW TROLLS SEE THINGS. YOU ACT AS IF THEY WON'T TAKE THE FIRST COMMENT YOU MADE AS ENCOURAGEMENT BECAUSE THEY DO THAT SOMETIMES. Telling you not to trust me? Ain't that about a thing. I've never once wanted to even hurt you, I never even wanted to fight you, and I still don't, but I'm starting to get tired of holding back because I don't want to have to fight someone I considered/consider a friend. You want to leave me to fight alone? I'm frankly starting not to care because I'd rather just fight the trolls then talk like friends to a person who I consider one and then end up in a fight over some silly comment that was made because I think that they will see it as freaking encouragement, or something silly like me deleting your comment about Troll in a moment of fear"
Has she asked you for any money yet to stop these 'trolls'? You may have 'known' this 'ruby' for 3 years but you know nothing about her and she seems to be drawing you into her problems of which you can't do a thing - really you can't do a thing to help her save for one thing...Tell her to stop taking pornographic photos and videos of herself and sending them to random people, close all her social media accounts and the next time someone 'visits' her do not let them in the house - call the Police.
My opinion -for what its worth -is 'Ruby' is attention seeking with deep psychological problems who revels in causing worry and troubles -my advice to you -cut all ties with Ruby' and find some real friends.
Wish I'd read that before replying - ding dong this is what can happen when you take the Internet seriously....

Retrochic, read what? And here is another message from Ruby who becoming patronising towards her friends and I do detect a hint of sacasm.



"Uh, let's see becuase he starts dojng things like posting my friend and family in places including Craigslist and the deep web. Oh, and even then I fight him for hours. Would you like me to show you?"


Ho hum.....

There is certainly more than one troll involved here..

'There is certainly more then one troll involved here'

What are you implying?

What are you implying?
ohhh 2 trolls now lol
I'm not implying anything.
I'm saying it loud and clear.
lol

'I'm not implying anything.

How can a comment be 'loud? A comment does not make any sound whatsoever. The fact your accusing me of 'trolling' is in itself a claim without evidence combined with a strawman/non sequitur.
Whatever......Trevor......

I am still waiting for the evidence that I am supposedly an internet troll?
Question Author
I have asked the girl to tell her side of the story, because she seems to think that posting pomographic material of her self, changing her profile pic to that of a Nazi symbol etc is protecting her family, friends and people that she hardly knows.

Yeah, and I have seen the messages for myself.
oh trevor For Funks Sake - you are being scammed, they are playing the long game with you. she knows these people sending the msgs etc - theyre in on it too
she will at some point ask you for cash to pay them off - or not ask and let you offer, make it seem like you thought of it
stop being an idiot

this is assuming you are not trolling yourself - if so its a pretty poor attempt, and just makes you sound stupid
Hi, Trevor! You seem to be so upset. Is your Ruby a troll or not – it does not matter. First of all, let’s analyze. You have written, that one of the creeps have hacked into the camera of her computer/smartphone device. According to the information from the spy apps site, it is necessary to install a special program at the target device, i.e. Ruby’s device, to monitor it.
http://www.phonespyapps.com/take-under-control-and-spy-on-multimedia-files

Ask her if she let anybody install apps before the start of hacking. If not, it looks quite queerly. If yes, then she knows, who are those horrible people. And the only way to stop is to uninstall that app or apps. Good luck!
