Have you been extorted or bribed? Tell me about it...

Long story, few details because legal advice is being sought, but currently being extorted by a close relation with an axe to grind. Wants money to stop him/her wrecking the career of another close relative. It’s family and it’s gotten nasty in the last 48 hours. Before that, everything was hunky-dory. I suspect drugs, perhaps meth might be involved in the extorter’s decision to embark upon such a fucking horrendous path. But even so, it’s just not on!

So, have you been an extortee, or had someone threaten you, family or your livelihood for personal gain? Can you talk about it? Can you let me know the legal path/s you went down to fix the problem?

Cheers
