Amanda Todd: First Viral Case of Sextortion
Amanda Todd: First Viral Case of Sextortion
Hello, I’d like to start off by saying that Aydin Coban, likely Amanda Todd’s most prolific Capper/Cyber Blackmailer has been arrested since 2014 and another man Michael Berenson who might have been involved in her case has been arrested since 2018-2019, I say might because Amanda‘s Mom got subpoenaed when police discovered that in Michael’s computer was Amanda’s famous unfortunately viral image. Nothing has been said publicly if Michael has anything else on Amanda.
We all likely know the case of Amanda Michelle Todd — a tormented, lonely girl just wanting love and acceptance after receiving so much ridicule — But do you think that Amanda’s blackmailer Aydin Coban is the only blackmailer? No. He can’t possibly be. Amanda’s viral image went all over Vancouver and who knows where else. According to the trial of Amanda’s Cyber Stalker, one Cap (or Screen Recording) of Amanda was around 5,000 views or maybe more; another was around 400-500 views; Let’s put to bed the large rumor that Amanda sent images or videos of herself in a graphic, sexual nature to anyone. It was never that. Aydin Coban — and likely anyone else as well — recorded these videos, there’s a rumor that Amanda had been forced to do 7 videos but only around 3 were verified in Aydin Coban V Amanda Todd’s trial back in 2022.
We know of two men that were arrested — but there has to be more than two, one confirmed and one potential but still charged — Amanda’s photo and videos went so viral (at least for Aydin Coban’s standards), he had a goal of ruining Amanda’s life and did so up until early February of 2012. About 6-7 maybe 8 months before Amanda’s untimely death.
The question I’m asking you True Crime Community is one of mystery and importance. That question is: How many people could have blackmailed Amanda or posted her image and videos?
The police — likely Dutch — had discovered two harddrives aside the one they had used in Amanda’s trial; about 100-106 pieces of evidence were used, police can still not open to this day, June 24th, 2026, the harddrives which could contain more evidence on Amanda and others.
Lets have a polite discussion because Amanda is no longer here to defend herself.
