I just got blackmailed

Good, because you have no idea if they would actually take them down even if you did pay them.

All you can do is cut off all contact with that person and learn from your mistake.

 

I'd stop talking to them at this moment. Delete you're account so people don't know who you were. Report it to the site and get in contact right away, work with them. They can possibly block them from doing any more harm if they actually have photo's. They have the power to shut this person down.

 

I'm sorry to hear that you got blackmailed. I myself had shared exposed images of myself to a woman on a dating website. I'm very thankful that i wasn't blackmailed. After sharing those images, I promised myself that I would never expose myself online to anyone else again. It's very tempting. Luckily, not many women request exposed photos from me. I think that's partly because I keep away from the internet, for the most part. I usually keep 8.5 daily hours away from the internet.

Another huge issue of sharing exposed photos is legal consequences. Someone can falsely claim that you shared exposed photos to them or their child. Heck, the blackmailer could send your exposed photos to your employer or coworkers, which can get you fired.
