Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Outrage as William Wragg sent his dick picture to blackmailer stranger on Grindr.
The WhatsApp honey trap scandal that has shaken Westminster politics is “very serious,” a British government minister said Friday, after a senior Tory MP revealed his own part in it.
Treasury Minister Gareth Davies was responding after Conservative William Wragg said he had shared the numbers of colleagues with a man on dating app Grindr, who he feared “had compromising things on me.”
POLITICO first revealed Wednesday that MPs, staffers and journalists in Westminster have been targeted with alluring WhatsApp messages from two unknown phone numbers that, in several cases, escalated to the sender sending explicit images.
“They had compromising things on me. They wouldn’t leave me alone. They would ask for people,” Mr Wragg said.
“I gave them some numbers, not all of them. I told him to stop. He’s manipulated me and now I’ve hurt other people.
“I got chatting to a guy on an app and we exchanged pictures. We were meant to meet up for drinks, but then didn’t.
“Then he started asking for numbers of people. I was worried because he had stuff on me. He gave me a WhatsApp number, which doesn’t work now.
“I’ve hurt people by being weak. I was scared. I’m mortified. I’m so sorry that my weakness has caused other people hurt.”
A Leicestershire Police spokesperson said the force is investigating a report of malicious communications after a number of unsolicited messages were sent to a Leicestershire MP last month.
“They were reported to police on Tuesday March 19. Inquiries are currently ongoing,” the force said.
William Wragg, MP for Hazel Grove in Greater Manchester, told the Times that he gave the personal phone numbers of colleagues to a man he met on gay dating app Grindr after he had sent intimate pictures of himself.
