Additional information: Our client believed he was having an intimate chat with a female he met on a dating website. Eventually he fell victim to internet blackmail and revenge porn. The user had captured an intimate video of our client in compromising positions and published it online together with personal identifying information. The user had created a number of Google + accounts under our client's name and used those to publish and link to the intimate video. The video and the derogatory captures about our client were appearing visibly on Google searches. Our solicitors successfully communicated with Google Inc to ensure the removal of the videos from the internet and the deletion of the Google + accounts and any other Google searches that included private information about our client.
