Hello there. I am from Russia and I had a bad luck with a person from Canada, so wanted to ask your advice.
I was chatting by Skype with a person a lot, after some time decided to stop and had to block this person in all social networks and Skype.
After 3 months that person wrote me again (over 100 messages in different accounts) and after I asked to stop contacting me it appeared that most of my conversation by Skype were recorded as a video. I've said lots of private things and felt relaxed, there were no sex videos, but as far as usually I behave very properly, there were some videos made while I was drunk (I can't really know what is on those videos, I saw only dates on previews)/
After that the person finally agreed to "say goodbye forever, but before there was made a special fake account with a picture showing that there was a video uploaded on some service (not youtube).
I don't know if it was published, but I feel really uncomfortable with that.
Is there anything I can do to prevent videos appear in internet?
I feel disoriented and this is the first time I've met such a situation.
Hope you can help.
P.S. I know this person's address as we were sending gifts to each other 6 months ago (but we weren't talking for 3 months).

We do not handle legal questions from Russia and only rarely do we handle legal questions from Canada. This is a site devoted to US law questions and legal concerns only.

Sorry.
