On May 26, 2022, an investigator with the Rockland County’s District Attorney’s Office (β€œInvestigator-1), who was working in an undercover capacity and posing as a 13-year-old girl on an online platform, engaged in text communications with REED. Investigator-1 told REED that she was 13 years old. During the communications, REED requested sexually explicit photos of Investigator-1 and asked her to meet with him to have sex. REED described the sexual things he wanted to do to Investigator-1 and, when she asked if he was β€œok with my age,” REED responded, β€œYes of course.” REED made a plan to meet Investigator-1 on the evening of May 26, 2022, in Rockland County, New York to have sex.

Residents, please be aware of a new email scam targeting our community. Scammers are sending emails claiming that they’ve hacked into your computer and recorded you watching illicit content. They threaten to release this fake video to your family and contacts unless you pay $2,000 in Bitcoin.
To make the scam more convincing, the email may include a Google Earth image of your home and a QR code for the payment. One of our residents noticed inconsistencies in the message and did not fall for the scam.
Stay vigilant! If you receive an email like this, do not panic, do not send money, and report it immediately to local law enforcement. Additionally, report the scam to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov. Scammers are getting more sophisticated, but with awareness, we can protect each other.
