Was Sent Unsolicited Explicit Videos Of A Minor (by The Minor) And I’m 19 - I’m Terrified!

Location: Maryland, USA

Hello all. I’m very panicked right now, maybe it is just me being overly anxious for no reason. Tonight, this 16 year old added me on Snapchat. Her age was nowhere on her profile, so I added her back (not knowing she was 16). She said she was 16 after a few snaps and was interested in me. I said “that’s an uncomfortable age gap for me, I’m not interested.” She didn’t like that, but I just ignored her future snaps.

Then all of a sudden she sent explicit videos of herself in the chat, not snap form, and I immediately said “yo wtf you should not be sending that to random people” and I immediately unadded her. I did not hit save on the videos. She’s not in my chat list obviously anymore and the only chats I sent were to tell her to not do that before unadding. Even though logically I am completely innocent, I can’t stop worrying. Will I be fine legally?

Edit: thanks to all for the reassuring advice, it probably is just said common scam. Hopefully. Only thing is that nobody has reached out to demand money or anything and this incident was like 2 hours ago so… idk how soon they’re supposed to reach out and threaten you lol.
