Regarding the intimate chatting
1 week ago
I once found a African call girl through Locanto and got her WhatsApp number. Later I texted her through WhatsApp asking her Photo, Location, and pricing negotiations. And I didn't show up for my safety. One month later I got a call claiming himself a police and said that he detained thet African girl and said that he saw my chat in WhatsApp and said a case will be booked against me. He also asked me 30K to close the case. I hope I haven't made any crime, so should I worry? Or is this a scam to loot money from people
A.Dear sir,
It is only scam by somebody else known to that girl. Simply chatting is no offence. But you must be very careful in future.

A.Dear Client
In all likelihood this seems to be a scam and you need worry so much on this. If the police has to make any case against you then they have to formally come to you following the due process of law and not in any arbitrary manner.

A.Dear Client,
Firstly, engaging in solicitation for sexual services, including negotiating pricing with a sex worker, is illegal in many jurisdictions, including India. Therefore, if you have engaged in such conversations, there may be legal consequences.
However, it's also crucial to recognize the possibility of scams or extortion attempts in such situations. Law enforcement agencies typically do not contact individuals over WhatsApp to solicit bribes or settlements, nor do they demand money over the phone to "close a case." This behavior is characteristic of scams aimed at exploiting individuals' fears and vulnerabilities.
