Eighteen hours after Jack Sullivan received an Instagram message from a user who called themselves Alice Dave, he was dead.

The 20-year-old Kutztown University sophomore was watching a movie, his father next to him on the couch in their Abington home, when the young, strange woman sparked a flirtatious conversation. The two exchanged messages, and later intimate photos on Snapchat — the app infamous for disappearing messages.

But later on that January 2023 night, Alice’s flirty texts were replaced with threats that if Sullivan didn’t send money, she would share the photos with his family, friends, and campus community.

“all u have to do is cooperate with me and i will not expose u, if you block me i will ruin your life,” Alice wrote, according to law enforcement records. “don’t try to act smart I know where you live.”

By the following afternoon, Sullivan transferred roughly $2,800, court records show. But his extortionist refused to delete the photos.

Less than 24 hours after the first message, Sullivan walked onto train tracks leading to the Jenkintown SEPTA station. He paced on the tracks for a few minutes as Alice demanded more payments. “I don’t even think I have enough for it,” he wrote.

Three minutes later a passing train struck and killed him.

Sullivan’s death was originally ruled a suicide, but the coroner’s office in Montgomery County changed the cause of death to homicide once details of the events leading up to it became clear.

Sullivan was a victim of an online sexual-extortion, or sextortion, scheme. Federal law enforcement have been prosecuting two Nigerian men, Imoleayo Samuel Aina and Samuel Olasunkanmi Abiodun, for their roles in Alice’s account and Sullivan’s death.

Amid the criminal prosecution, Sullivan’s parents filed a civil lawsuit against social media companies, which they said facilitated the crime through their platforms and failed to remove predatory accounts.

Same thing happened to me, she looked like a really hot model. I just ignored their threats but I tracked their IP down to France, where allegedly Nigerian gangs thrive on this extortion schemes using Skype to record their victims in compromising acts and then threatening to send to family and friends. I was ~35 when this happened and more mentally equipped to handle it, I can't imagine how a 20 year old would process this.

Hammer of justice is coming for these freres du merde.
