CrimeStoppers: Extortion Scams

September 9, 2021

CrimeStoppers and the Honolulu Police Department would like to inform the public about a recent extortion scam.

There are reports of victims meeting individuals on social media and dating apps. The victims engage in conversations with an individual, who then instructs the victim to engage in inappropriate behavior and/or send lewd photos. Once the victim engages in the behavior, the other person threatens to disseminate the lewd photos or videos unless a ransom is paid. Please do not comply with requests to send lewd videos or photos.

Anyone with information about these incidents is asked to call CrimeStoppers at 955-8300. The public may now send anonymous web tips to www.honolulucrimestoppers.org or via the P3 Tips App.
