Hi! How are you. I'm new here, so hi all! I would really appreciate advice from you (models or other guys experienced with the camming world).
The short story and question in 5 lines: I've been chatting with a MFC model for a few months and suddenly I'm paranoid that she (or someone connected with her, like her studio) could make bad use of the personal info she has about me. I'm aware this is not usual (as well as most of guys are just normal guys, but still there are stalkers out there). I'm also worried because I've read that some studios in Eastern Europe are connected with criminal activities.. so maybe they usually do this? Maybe she could be forced to? Do you know if this is something that could happen?
The long story (optional):
I've read a lot about people trying to blackmail cam models. But now I'm getting a little paranoid about something and wanted to ask you... have you heard about models (or people connected to models) making bad use of users' personal info? Of course, I am not assuming that's a normal or usual behavior, I'm just asking about "bad apples"... I also mention "people connected with models" because I understand that in some specific countries some studios are run by people involved in criminal activities (mafias, etc.).
The issue is... I've been chatting with a mfc model for a few months (in PMs, about day-to-day stuff, problems, etc.), and she and I have shared some personal information (first name, location, what we study). I have no reason to think she has been lying to me (specially after she told me she lied to me when we met, because she has default fake answers for all those things). I'm also very aware of privacy issues for models, so I rarely make questions about personal info (I also want to be sure she knows I'm a normal guy and I'm not a stalker). I have also shared more info than her, which is OK to me. She usually asks me to turn on my cam in mfc just to chat when her room is slow (pointing my face, not my genitals lol). Also, I am not a good tipper (don't have a lot of money...) so I don't think she has been friendly over this long period of time just because she expects money.
UNTIL... this last week she has sent me some emails... and now she is asking me for my Facebook account (personal or B-side account? I don't know, she didn't specify... I have a B-side Facebook account, but I do know that even through your B-side account you can unintentionally expose personal info). She asked me politely (only if you are comfortable, she said in her email). But I feel she is going faster than I expected. Maybe I am more concerned about privacy issues and more cautious about this than her. And specially... what if the people at her studio are used to do this? What if a friend told her she could easily use me if she gets some more info about me?
The way she asked me for my Facebook also made me suspicious. She said she wants to be "always" in contact with me. That sounds like she is talking to a regular-horny MFC member, not to a friend. But... she doesn't have a great English (as you noticed, me neither lol) so maybe that was the best sentence she could write and her way to say "let's stay in touch". Also, I think that if I ask her are you talking about our personal Facebooks or our B-side Facebooks, she might feel offended. She doesn't have a Facebook listed in her profile, so I'm guessing she is talking about her and my real Facebooks?
I don't know... I know I'm being paranoid. Should I be worried? In fact, at this point, it doesn't matter if I give her my Facebook or not... I feel that she could track me if she wanted with the info I have already gave her. I suppose that's why I'm really nervous.
This actually could happen or is only my imagination and I just met a friendly nice girl? Moreover, I consider her a friend, and I feel really bad thinking this way about her. But you know, sometimes people don't have a choice.
Sorry for the looong email. Thanks in advance for your comments.
