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.

I got his mobile as I assumed someone was impersonating him and using his pics so wanted to inform him.

Yes, if it's okay for you for a guy to be awful then that's okay and disgustingly rude then send unsolicited nudes fine. Not by me.

You contacted him. Wholly unsolicited

You’ve said this about 12 times, and ignored many other questions. There’s no way you’d be able to get through the interview for this article

Yes, I thought someone was using his pics and wanted to tell him.

Who goes round impersonating local councillors?

Can you do a good photo sadface for the article op?

EmeraldShamrock000 · 18/03/2025 20:40

I would delete them.
You both sound potty.

Using his nude pics?!

You are ignoring other questions to repeat the same point over and over and over again. How would anyone get an article out of that?

GivingUpFinally · 18/03/2025 20:41

Unsolicited nudes are a crime. I'd report to the police and take it from there. Its a form of sexual assault

No, they arrived via WA

Just report him to his council and party, & the police

if they don’t act and sack him for this, then I’d contact the local papers on his area.

I wouldn’t want money to sell the story.
He deserves to be held accountable for his actions and reprimanded. You don’t deserve money for his actions.

Moonlightfrog · 18/03/2025 20:42

I had similar happen to me when I started online dating (around 10 years ago) but it was a high ranking police officer. He sent me photos of him having sex with a young woman 😬 and asked me to meet up for group sex with him and his colleagues. I checked him out online and he was who he said he was. I wasn’t in a great place at the time so I stupidly deleted everything and blocked him. I regret not reporting it or outing him but with him being in the police I doubt I would have got far with it.

EmeraldShamrock000 · 18/03/2025 20:42

You're back peddling now. 😅

Most people just block them. Not Google then find their mobile and message them.

Ritzybitzy · 18/03/2025 20:43

It’s a criminal offence. Go to the police.

tillytoodles1 · 18/03/2025 20:43

One of our councillors was done for this. He was banned for four months, but I thought he should have been banned for ever.

cupsandcupsoftea · 18/03/2025 20:43

I don't want money, I probably worded the title wrong, sorry.

I just think it's shitty.

OP posts:
Phonicshaskilledmeoff · 18/03/2025 20:44

Could you maybe just report him to his party, other councillors and police?

I normally would but he's an elected person in power which made me mad.

AdoraBell · 18/03/2025 20:44

I would try the local paper but not ask for payment.

Wintersgirl · 18/03/2025 20:45

You say you don't want the money yeah right if you say so, and yet your thread title states "who can I sell my story to?"
