okay so I admit I put a suggestive video of myself on youtube a long time ago, like in september. (it contained NO personal info whatsoever)
I took it off about 3 months after that though.
I got a disturbing phone call on my cell phone last night from this REALLY sketchy sounding guy with a new york accent and he says "Hi, is this Liza?" and i said "Why do you ask? Who is this?" And he said "My name is John. And I saw your video on youtube." Then I said "I have to go, bye." and I hung up.
I then called the non-emergency police number and they started a report number in case this does develop into a stalking case.
I'm so scared still, and I'm worried that he's going to call me again/rape me or something. (the call was anonymous)
Putting suggestive videos of yourself online at a young age are a very bad idea. I hope this teaches you a lesson many children ignore about online safety. [ Mr_Skittles's advice column | Ask Mr_Skittles A Question ]

wonderyears answered Thursday July 12 2007, 9:43 pm: Yeah, that is a little creepy.
He could be one of your friends playing a joke, like previous people have said.
Or..
Does your profile have any personal information in it or a link to a myspace/other networking sites?
Is it possible that this man could have went in your profile and clicked those links? [ wonderyears's advice column | Ask wonderyears A Question ]

But it might be one of you're friends pulling a prank on you or something. And it's not, just try to stay away from strangers. And if they call again, talk to him for a little longer, this time go to up to your parents or someone else (so you would have witnesses} and call the police afterwards.

i would ask your friends if they know a john they might of gave him your number or somthing but dont worry its nothing iits probably sombody your friends know but if it isent any of them then i would find out who it is trace the call and ask them to stop calling or you will call the police

In the video, what were you doing? maybe your shirt had your name, or maybe your friend asked you on there for your myspace link or aim screename. He could have gotton your screename and looked at maybe your away message and it might of had your number. I mean I seriously doubt that, but something like that could have happened [ GRACCIEBELLSSSS's advice column | Ask GRACCIEBELLSSSS A Question ]
