Last reviewed: 25 May 2026
Sextortion = someone threatens to publish intimate images unless you send money or more material. Criminal: extortion (Sr Art. 318, max 9 years) + on actual distribution also Sr Art. 139h. Top rule: DO NOT PAY. 95% of sextortion extortionists follow patterns — first payment = invitation to more demands. Helpwanted data: among people who didn't pay, more than 80% went away quickly once they realised it was futile. Much sextortion is automated — bulk emails with "we have your webcam recording" without actual material. Ignoring often works. Real sextortion (with actual material) requires first response. For minors: NCMEC + Helpwanted have direct removal procedures worldwide. Very fast. Psychological impact: high urgency — Slachtofferhulp + Centrum Seksueel Geweld can help even if you don't feel like a "classic victim".
