Now everyone knows mobile is a good device for capturing the photos and we capture the photo of our family members or friends regarding special event. But now some boys using this device in wrong way. Capture the wrong photos of their girl friend or any girl and start the blackmailing her. They said give me money otherwise I will show this to your fathers or mother. Some time they say came with me otherwise I will show this to your boy friend etc. Yesterday I read news in news paper regarding this blackmailing. What you think this is wrong because mobile is good device for storing the photo but some persons not understand this.

It is very wrong to use a cellphone in this way. That is why we should be careful about who we allow to take our photos. We can't be too careful these days....

I think this is the main reason why we should be careful of what we allow others to take (photo) of us. Most people trust too much and would put themselves in a bad position in the end. I don't think it's the fault of the camera or cellphone, it's about who's taking photos and who's allowing them to. Therefore, take heed and be careful of what you do when you're drunk, or too kinky. It may be fun while things are going on, but you will regret once the moment is gone and there are 'souvenirs' to the escapades you don't want anyone else to know about. Have a great MyLot experience ahead!

There are lot of cases like these nowadays, and it is unfortunate that this kind of people are using them for the wrong selfish reasons, although, fortunately laws were immediately formulated to counteract such schemes, and the culprits would be easily apprehended.

The main reason of increasing this type of incident is law not taking any action for these culprits. All wrong persons are living happy and got bail after giving some money.

we have heard and we know about this happening to everyone who is not careful having their pictures taken. i think its just about knowing what or what not to allow people to be done to us. we all know that it may be used against us at one point so it is best not to allow anyone to have anything on us.

Everywhere has become a scary world because of some of these gadgets and there are a lot of very, very bad, people lurking around trying to take advantage of almost everything. Our part is to be very careful with the people that we sort of trust because being watchful and careful might just be our only ally. People like these are cowards. They should be punished. It is so bad why they have to do things like these to others. Therefore, as much as possible let us all just be careful.

Things that can be used in the wrong way, will be used like that. It's the users fault not the mobile's that some people use it for blackmailing. Girls should be suspicious if a guy want to take such pictures of them which can be used against them. Even if it's their boyfriend, if it's suspicious that he will use the pics after a possible breakup.

hi fantabulus it is right that mobile nowadays are so highly technical that you can capture photo with a high definition or with higher pixels compared to the older versions with lower pixels. capturing photos of friends and families during some events or occasions are acts of preserving the memories on a hard copy. these photos will remind you how happy you all were or will give you good memories of what happened in the photo. but somehow, as technologies goes higher, crime rates and different types of crime are also getting higher. about this blackmailing another person using a photo is definitely wrong. that is why, authorities are reminding the people to be alert or aware of their shots so not to be used to blackmail them. but unfortunately, sometimes people forgets to be careful and this incidents happens. that is why, there are already laws concerning about this. so, for that matter, always be reminded that photos can preserve memories, whether it is a good memories or a bad memories. that's all have a nice day!
