I suspect this is a scam.  Once you deposit the check it will be dishonored down the road by your bank.  If you send them the $125  befor you have learned of the bank dishonored the check (which can take a couple of weeks) you will be responsible to pay your bank back the funds.... Read More

Can police help me get an inappropriate picture of me as a minor off of my ex’s phone without legal backfire?

Answered 4 years and a month ago by Andrew M. Jaffe (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
The problem you face here is if you still have those underage pictures on your electronics.  Even though the pictures are of you, it is still underage "kiddie porn."  Do NOT erase these images at this point.   You will want to discuss your situation with a lawyer in more detail. Choose someone from your locale.  Many lawyers offer a free phone consultation.  The lawyer should have a plan for getting you off the kiddie porn hook as they look to the Ex to remove the underage porn.   You may want to consider hiring a lawyer to send a Demand letter to your ex.  While a Demand letter has little legal impact, the lawyer's letterhead gets the recipient’s attention.   This is a relatively inexpensive way to put the person on notice that you are not going to let these actions continue and that you are serious about pursuing your legal remedies.  It also tells the person that they could get in legal hot water which will cost them a lot of legal fees if nothing else.  This will often convince them to stop their evil ways....

Take your phone to the sales office of your local cell provider.  They should be able to see if it was hacked.   You may want to back up your data and pictures and re-set your phone to the original factory settings.  This should remove any hacker's programs on your phone.

im a victim of what i believe is sextortian

Answered 4 years and 7 months ago by Andrew M. Jaffe (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
 This is a common scam on the Internet.  There is no girl, there is no mother or father or detective -- only Internet fraudsters.     Do NOT send them any money.  They are trying to blackmail you, and you are the victim here - not some young girl who does not exist.   Block them and do not communicate with them in the future.   I have never heard of these fraudsters actually posting the pictures because 1) It takes time and makes them no money, and 2) It makes it too easy for them to get caught....

I found a business with my business name

Answered 4 years and 9 months ago by Andrew M. Jaffe (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer
A business name and a trademark are not the same thing.  However, your description says you can find him on the Internet using the name to promote his business.  That use gives him priority in Trademark law. There will be other questions you find as you seek to open an e-commerce web site or App.  In my experience, working with a lawyer as you begin will save you a lot of money in the future.   I have written a legal guide with issues you will need to discuss with an  Internet attorney.  I have placed a link here for your convenience: http://www.avvo.com/legal-guides/ugc/legal-steps-to-opening-a-new-e-commerce-website-app-or-blog...
