Had that happened to me once.
[QUOTE=CougarBait;3308882]Anyone ever been blackmailed?

Just texted this one. She must have searched my number and got my full name, then found my facebook or something. She is threatening to expose me.
Number is 773-XXXX328. Any idea how to handle this?[/QUOTE]I told her to go for it. Told her to try and I turn her into the prosecutor for blackmail. Got some choice words back and nothing further. Blackmail is illegal in most states.
Next time screencap the ad and post it

And seriously, at least use Google Voice to call an unknown, and never use a phone number connected to your real identity in any way to call a provider.
Google voice number v's burner phone
So. Reading about black mail, was just wondering using Google voice number is just as good as burner phone?
Yes someone can hack into Google voice and get the real number, but most people I see doesn't have that skill set.
Was just wondering. What's your opinion guys?
