a couple of months back my old landlord use to offer me lifts to interviews and etc: hes wife being aware and also agreeing to it, then one day after they witnessed me having an aurgument with my then boyfriend he started taking advantage of the fact that i was now single and residing on my own with a baby he started talking about fantasising about me and always looking for an excuse to come by me place to fix things. i have shot him off on numerous occassions telling him am not interested in breaking up marraiges and after me moving out he eventually stopped, i found out there was accomadation with them again and i actually considered moving back because of safety and i called him up asking if the place was cheaper this time round, eventually he started again fetch me ones from work, i guess that was stupid on my side, because now according to him i was leading him on. eventually he started showing me hes man parts and yes i was still engaging in conversation which i should not have but yes i did. i then told him to leave me alone but he wouldnt. so i figured if i tell him to pay me money or i tell hes wife he would actually leave me alone, as he did not understand no and he did not stop.he then pretended to have sent the money as per my request to keep quite and he will leave me alone, but it was all a scam to kinda trap me and in turn he turned around and threatend me with lawyers and bail and extortion. i said to him it was never about the money as i have my own but a way out for me so he could leave me alone but hes now claiming am black mailing him
