Thank you guys for the help! I really don't want to change my phone number, do you think that I should or would blocking him be enough?

Got a call from a man claiming to be "Jasmine's" father saying that I owed him over 1000 dollars for a hospital bill including counseling, and threatened to tell the police department if I didnt pay him. Then a man claiming to be detective "Paul D. Smith" with Crystal Clear Investigators called me. That organization does not exist.

"Father's" #: (843)-957-4182
"Detective's" #: (843)-226-2401

Both numbers are based in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Crystal Clear Investigations is not part of this scam. Crystal Clear Investigations is a private company that should be regulated in the state they are operating or have agreements with other states.

The bottom line is they have no powers of arrest under our laws.

"Father's" #: (843)-957-4182 Mail box is full can not accept new messages.
"Detective's" #: (843)-226-2401 Generic Voice Mail.

Yeah. Just last night my coworker received a call from someone who claims to be the father of the girl he was talking to. Demanding around 1300 bucks to deactivate the family phone plan. Same exact number. Claims to be living in either Seattle WA or Spokane WA. He didn't send or ask for nudes and she didn't send any. Then this morning, the "father" told him to keep in contact with a brand new number which is: 2539887043
He blocked both numbers today. I'll keep updating this as time goes on.

Thank you for posting this! Yesterday my coworker got a call from a man claiming to be "Jasmines father" as well and demanded around 1300 dollars to deactivate the family phone plan. Except this number was: 8644510973
Then this morning the "father" wanted updates on the payment and this new number was: 2539887043. This number is based in Seattle WA. He blocked both numbers today. I will post again if an investigator calls him.
Also, did "Jasmines father" want updates every single day about the payment and the moment he didn't hear from you he was going to "call the police"? It was happening to my coworker and I'm curious

Please stop all communication with these criminals. Block their numbers and don't answer calls from strange numbers . Also report this on the IC3 website.

Hey everyone. I was scammed in a similar way, via mocospace (account name is bonnylovrssex). Contacted me about wanting to talk via text, so I gave her my number (xxxxxxxxx). Immediately, I get a nude photo that didn't have her face in it. She begs for one back, but I decline her offer, delete the convo, and go about my week. I get a call that weekend from the same daughters number and it's her "dad". He's pissed, the "mom" is sick, and it's up to me to "clean up my mess" for sexting a minor (her profile says she's 24). Basically says he already filed a police report and I had charges placed against me (total bull) and I had to pay 350$ to get the charges dropped (initially). The charges increased to 450$ to pay off a "magistrate" and 565$ to pay off a "detective". I was panicking, so I ended up paying both fees. A couple days later, the father called again and he said his daughter tried to kill herself and insurance won't cover the medical fees unless he pressed charges, and he said I'd have to pay 750$ to help with the hospitalization, which I did. I never once thought or asked anything, as the admins on this page say, they operate on fear that they instill on their victims. Once you start asking questions, however, their story falls apart.
After about a week, the man contacted me again, this time from a south Carolina number (803-361-2440) claiming he needed 470$ to pay for the daughters treatment at a specialist. At this point, like the admins said, I was spent. I ended up selling various electronics just to pay this asshole earlier, so I had nothing. Then, my friend referred me to an attorney, who told me to relax, because it was a scam. I confronted the man and demanded to see paperwork. He didn't (more like couldn't) and he became flustered, his story began to fall apart. He claimed he was in Nevada, but he pressed charges in San Francisco, error one. His story kept falling apart, and he threatened me with legal action. I eventually basically told him to fuck off. 2 days later, the same guy called and left a voice mail with the 702 number, pretending to be a detective. I ignored it and am still walking the street and going to school.
I know a lot of people are wondering or are scared. But don't be afraid. Sadly, I found this site too late. But their advice is legit. Ignore the scammer. The best advice, though? DON'T SEND D*** PICS TO STRANGERS!!!!!!!! If you do, be safe. If you do feel you are being scammed, just follow the advice on the page. I am living, breathing proof that this is a scam (this scam happened in July). I really appreciate this site, even though I found it too late. Thanks for reading my story.

Edit: I was also contacted from 682-240-8102

Actually the best advice is to not to send any compromising photo's to anyone including BF/GF and spouses. Once out of your hands you can not control them.

For the bots.

Edit again; I made a mistake admin, the first number was the number she gave me (the number that was edited out). Sorry.

No prob, looking back now, it was a very awkwardly worded sentence, which I apologize for.

702-540-8652 (daughter)
702-283-9279 (detective)
682-240-8102 (dad's work phone)
803-361-2440 (new number they contacted me from)
