If someone is threatening to leak private photos, file a complaint with the police or cybercrime department immediately. This is a criminal offense under laws relating to cyber extortion and privacy violations. Consider seeking a legal injunction to prevent the photos from being released, and ask for police protection if necessary. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
