I made a throwaway for this, and I have to be vague because I signed an NDA.
So first, I’m a college student in a major American city. I don’t spend a ton of time online (and I don’t aspire to be an influencer or model) but I have a nice natural body and a pretty face and my social media is attracting a growing number of followers. I won’t lie, it’s very fun to be considered hot, but I don’t take it too seriously.
I was messaged a few weeks ago by the representative for an unidentified individual, asking if I was interested in a lucrative opportunity. They offered me a substantial fee upfront simply to sign a non-disclosure form and hear the details. Of course I said yes.
The money was transferred instantly, from a company I didn’t recognize and couldn’t find on google. Then, as a first step (“in order to proceed with our proposal”) the rep requested several closeup photos and a video of my face, smiling, without makeup or filters, as well as a full-body video in a mirror—front, rear and side views—in a bikini or lingerie. I sent these.
