SINGAPORE - When Tara (not her real name) received an anonymous message on Instagram threatening to post sexually explicit photos of her along with her real name online, she felt at a loss as to what to do.
Reporting the threat to the police was one option, but the photos in question had been posted by the 24-year-old herself last year, using a pseudonym on the online adult content platform OnlyFans.
