Sell the story, if so to who?

I'm unsure about this but I'm on dating sites and as we all know it's full of parasites.

I was speaking to an elected councillor who I thought was decent, he sent me nudes, vulgar text etc. He swiftly deleted it but it's really wrong, I have screenshot etc. He was disgusting.

I'm not on about selling per se for money but we shouldn't have creeps like this representing us.

We chatted on the site, he then got a bit horrible. Then I thought I'd find his number on government site to verify was him, I assumed it wad a fake profile. It wasn't as he got back to me off the proper number

We messaged on the dating app then I found his number via the government website. He replied, verified himself sent me nudes, horrible messages. I just don't think this is right.

WTF? So you basically online stalked him for his number?

Neither of you are coming out of this very well tbh. He sounds like a creep but your behaviour was also quite inappropriate.

So he didn’t give you his number, you found it and messaged him. Had he sent you nudes before you got his number?

I'm just not sure if it's 'interesting ' enough.

So, I don't want money but I don't think he should be in a position of power.

You could make a social media post if you want to stay anonymous.

He's a councillor, not an MP.

I don't want to make a profit but I'd happily sell and donate anything to a women's charity. I'm just not sure if it would be of interest.

Report it to your local council, or, to the local govt ombudsman.

Loads of lazy journos hang round on these pages though

He's not local.

Local paper would be your best bet, surely.

You really want to make a profit on this??

Haricots · 18/03/2025 20:16

This is via messaging rather than via the app?

If so, how? I'm not wanting money just to expose.
