I came across an Instagram account where a guy is openly selling 500+ nude photos and150+ sex/nude videos of his ex. Some of the videos have already been uploaded elsewhere online. He is even showing screenshots of the girl begging him not to leak anything, so it seems clear she does not consent.

I don’t know if she has filed a complaint yet, but since he’s doing this so openly, I’m worried maybe no action has been taken.

My questions:

1. Can I report this anonymously to the Cyber Cell in India?

2. Can a third party (someone who is not the victim) file a complaint on her behalf?

3. What is the fastest/best way to get the account taken down and preserve evidence?

4. Should I report only to Instagram, or also to police/cyber crime portal?

I have screenshots/details but obviously won’t post them publicly. Just want to help stop this.

Any serious legal/practical advice appreciated.

Edit: Another reason I’m concerned is that the victim(aged 18-20) appears conventionally attractive, which means this kind of content could spread very quickly online and go viral, causing even more harm.
