eWhoring: The new online trend with photos ending up in porn sites

A British woman and her model Instagram claims to have fallen victim to a new creepy fashion on the internet.

She herself is now fighting for justice, when she saw it photos to be sold online in what is known as “e-whoring”.

Jess Davies, 27, starred in a new BBC documentary (“When Nudes Are Stolen”), in which she explores exactly how provocative images of the beautiful Wales ended up selling for $ 15 a pack.

Those who want them are swindlers, who set up fake profiles as women and promise love affairs to trustworthy people in exchange for money. But pornographic websites and even luxury escort services want them.

Davies found out she was the victim of e-whoring when she uploaded a photo of herself to a forum and asked people if anyone had seen it. Within minutes, she received a response to a package of 100 stolen photos of her being sold online.

“I was shocked to be recognized,” says the instagrammer with her 150,000 friends, but also a second shock at the fact that someone was about to ruin her life for $ 15.

Cybersecurity expert Scott McGready says those involved in e-whoring exchange nude photos like cards. In Davies’ case, they were revealing images from her life as a model, a career that has been going on since she was 18 years old.

E-whoring recommends scam. It is recruited by people in order to deceive victims. For the world of the internet it is of course a lucrative business that, as the BBC documentary tells us, the members of the spirals are trained in collecting and selling such images.
