Christopher Sellman, a 23-year-old, created an elaborate series of lies to obtain around £10,000 from two people he knew and sent disturbing videos to them.He sent pictures of a razor blade to his throat, a crossbow to his temple, and videos of him being forced underwater.
The message appeared to be from someone who said they had kidnapped Sellman and that he would only be released if the victims paid money into a bank account, which was controlled by the defendant. Contacting Kent Police, the victims changed their phone numbers but instead began to get messages sent via email and social media platforms.
Weapons matching those seen in the photos, as well as mobile phones containing the threatening messages, were recovered from the property.
