Napoleon Apollo® 22 Charcoal Water Smoker

Residents are reminded not to share intimate images online, after a Guelph man was extorted this week.

On Monday he reported he had been communicating with someone he believed was a female through a social media app. During the lengthy conversation he sent intimate images of himself, then began receiving messages threatening to release the photos if he did not pay $500.

The man eventually sent $150 via online gift cards before telling the suspect he would not pay more and ending communication.
