The Internet Crime Complaint Center released a report on dating and payday loan scams that take it one step further, to the real world and into your pockets. Users were notified that some of their sexual conversations were posted online, along with their real names and phone numbers. Scammers promised to have the posts removed and the victim`s anonymity preserved. However, the posts remained online even after the victim paid the fees. Some victims complained that harassment calls were even placed at their work place, with scammers pretending to be lawyers or government representatives.”]
