A 20-year old MTSU student called Murfreesboro Police after paying a man who identified himself as a U.S. Marshal over $1,000 in the past four months. The victim told officers he received a phone call in June from the subject telling him that he was investigating the victim for sending "Inappropriate Photos" to the daughter of a police officer.

The victim said that he sent the money out of fear and does not know who the alleged daughter could be? Evidently, the victim paid the man between $100 and $150 weekly.
