State Police Investigating Alleged Extortion Attempt

The Pennsylvania State Police at Schuylkill Haven are investigating a reported attempted blackmail earlier this month.

Troopers say an Auburn man reported to police that he was being blackmailed by a woman he met through Facebook, who was threatening to expose the victim masturbating himself if he didn't pay her $2,000.  The investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with information on this incident is asked to contact the Schuylkill Haven Barracks at (570) 754-4600.
