Paid Someone On Fiverr To Remove Booking Photo Off Facebook, Now They Are Extorting Me.

Card image cap

I desperately made the foolish mistake of paying some guy on fiverr to remove a booking photo for a charge that was dropped and sealed. I’d tried everything to get it off Facebook and failed so I desperately paid a fiverr seller who offers dmca takedown and defamatory post removal service. He told me he had a “team” working on it, when in reality I found out he simply paid some other guy or two to remove the original post. Once the original was removed, I noticed 2 more posts were made on different accounts of the booking photo. After getting those removed as well, 3 more went up last night, on the same account. When I contacted the account they said “HOW MUCH YOU PAY ME?” It’s some guys in India doing this so I can’t even realistically threaten them legally. Even if I paid them, this will be a never ending perpetual loop where they just make new “mugshot accounts” posting mainly my mugshot and knowing I’ll just keep paying.

I’m at a loss for what to do here. I clearly got involved with the worst kind of people with this.
