OK.. This one seems a little strange to an old timer like me .. but for all those Casanova's on QL .... BE careful in the cyberworld.... I love the comment by the Clinical psychologist "men agree to perform such acts online due to biological, psychological and sociological reasons." - Dohhhh !!

Dubai: Cyber sex blackmail is on the increase, police have revealed. The practice involves the victim acting indecently online after being enticed by an attractive ‘woman’.

Earlier this week Abu Dhabi Police and Dubai Police warned social media users against cyber criminals who try to lure men to have sex chats online and later blackmail them. Both Abu Dhabi and Dubai reported cases where international gangs use obscene video clips and a dubbed female voice to lure men online and encourage them to perform indecent activities while using a webcam.

Clinical psychologist at LightHouse Arabia, Dr Saliha Afridi, said that men agree to perform such acts online due to biological, psychological and sociological reasons.

“A lot of it has to do with being in the moment, when the person might not be thinking straight. Their rational human mind is off and their irrational animal mind is on and once it’s over they think ‘what was I thinking’, this is the biological reason.”

She added that it can also be due to sociological reasons as they might not have much engagement or experience with women and so might be easily lured.

“Finally it could be a psychological reason, the person might be turned on by risky situations or has a fetish and want to be recorded.”

Colonel Dr Rashid Mohammad Burshid, Director of Criminal Investigation at Abu Dhabi Police, warned people not to fall prey to such cyber criminals.

Brigadier Khalil Ebrahim Al Mansouri, Director of the General Department of Criminal Investigation (CID) at Dubai Police, said that the department has a specialist online team that is working round the clock to block sites that post videos meant to embarrass and ruin the victim’s reputation.

They are also working extensively to track and stop blackmailers both abroad and in the country.

I think it’s inappropriate to call cyber wanking sex.

Just don't get anything on your keyboard (:

They're sending nude pictures of themselves, which is what Carlos Danger did. He did it over FB.

I think we should ask "Carlos Danger" about the dangers of cyber sex.

Lol at Casanova's on QL, he is a QLVG Asst. manager :)

Cyber sex is not less than rape hence the victim should not be afraid or feel shy to report.

Some people are really going crazy after money & s*x and are ready to do anything for it.

I personally cannot understand why anyone would want to do such things with a total stranger, but it is happening and people are getting trapped and blackmailed.

Perhaps the psychologist has a point.

I think people who use the "Cyber sex" have missed something from the real women and might be too shy or too ugly to meet one. - As they said-

I don't believe that sex can work in this way!!!!

Maybe watching a porno movie will do the same, so why to act like a jerk and practice these gross things !

Anyway, lesson learned
