Sextortion scam costs Lincoln man $2,000
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — A Lincoln man lost $2,000 last week in a sextortion scheme.
Police said Monday that a 40-year-old man reported the fraud on Friday.
He said he had been chatting with a woman on a dating app and eventually sent her explicit photos.
She threatened to put the photos online unless he paid her, according to police.
So he sent her the money via online payment platforms.
