Threat scam demanding payment of Rp. 500,000

Hello everyone, I want to share in case someone here has experienced the same as me. Just this afternoon, I was messaged by an unknown number. I asked who they were and where they lived, but they didn't want to answer and said they would only answer if I paid Rp.500,000. Since I didn't know who they were, I didn't give the money. They threatened that if I didn't pay, they would embarrass me or make my personal matters viral, even though I have never had such a relationship. If anyone sees this message, I really hope to get input from all friends and please explain further to me whether this is a type of scam or not because honestly, this kind of thing is very distressing for me.

    Sis, have you ever defaulted on a loan from a payday loan? Maybe that's a modus operandi from the debt collector, because I once received a WhatsApp message asking about someone, coincidentally that was my younger sibling's name, so I replied that I knew them. Then they said OMG bla bla bla, but it turned out they were a third party tasked with collecting from people who default on loans. I immediately blocked them. Since then, whenever I get a message from an unknown number, I block it right away.

    That's a scam modus operandi. Just ignore it. If it's a payday loan, make sure to choose the official ones, not the illegal ones, or you'll get trapped like that.

    I also received many calls from online lenders.. those online lenders just do whatever they want to us, don't be harsh so that they will be the ones to report.
