The name being mentioned in this story is Misa – a famous female YouTuber from the past.
Recently, she caused a stir on social media by unexpectedly sharing her story of being tricked into filming a risqué scene through a video call, only to be blackmailed for about $30,000 (nearly 800 million VND). However, her candid and humorous reaction left the online community both surprised and impressed.
For those who may not know, Misa once gained immense popularity when she transitioned from being a YouTuber to directing risqué action films.
However, in 2022, she unexpectedly announced her marriage and withdrew from the entertainment industry to lead the life of an office worker. By 2023, she shocked everyone by closing her YouTube channel with nearly a million subscribers (970,000) and officially retiring from the title of “celebrity.” Recently, after a long absence from social media, Misa surprised everyone by posting a story recounting her experience of being deceived, leaving many in shock.
In her post, the YouTuber recalled the early days of her YouTube career when she received a collaboration invitation from a foreign magazine. Initially, everything seemed very professional. However, when the other party requested a video interview to “measure her body for costume fitting,” the situation began to take a strange turn. “At first, they only asked me to wear lingerie and turn around in front of the camera to ‘scan the model,'” she shared. But after a few times of saying that “the scan was unsuccessful,” the other party started demanding more from her, causing the YouTuber to become suspicious and hang up the call.
Just when it seemed the story had ended, a few days later, Misa received a threatening email: if she didn’t transfer $30,000, her sensitive images would be made public. Instead of panicking, the YouTuber’s reaction was remarkably calm – even somewhat sarcastic, as she requested that if they did so, they should tag her to gain more followers. Additionally, she noted that not everyone in such situations could remain as calm as she did, urging others to be cautious.
