A Helpless Chinese Girl Seeking For Legal Help

Card image cap

I'm a girl living in China. My ex-boyfriend works and lives in Rowland Heights, California. After we broke up, I discovered he recorded a private video of me during a video call and uploaded it to multiple porn websites without my consent. My face, name, and school are clearly visible. He blurred his own face. The video has spread across many sites.

I tried to contact him to remove it, but he blocked me everywhere.I contacted police in California, but they said cross-border cases are difficult to handle.

I'm now trying to file cybercrime reports and a restraining order in California, but I can’t afford a lawyer.

If anyone knows:

• nonprofits that help victims of revenge porn

• pro bono or low-cost lawyers in California

• what legal steps actually work

Please share any resources or advice. I'm really struggling and would appreciate any help.

Thank you.

Location: China

***********************************

I conatacted his father yesterday, his father told him to remove the video, and it was removed. But I have recorded the video and still want to report it to police and sue to court.

I hope to find an experienced and low-cost attorney to help me.

Thank you!
